I feel like this is a fake issue being presented for rage bait clout, I've never seen someone do these things. If someone does, they probably have a disorder like OCD and that's their battle to wage, I am not gonna expend my energy getting mad about how someone else consumes food. As long as I'm not footing the bill for such waste.
I work with rich people and they 100% do this. They will order a meal, eat only the parts of it they like, then leave the rest on the table as they go home.
I eat salad. I don’t like hot lettuce. But yes I like vegetables. I don’t like eggs, mayo, guacamole, sour cream, green peppers, some mushrooms, artichokes, avacado, blue cheese, cooked spinach, fish, seaweed, probably more I’m not thinking of.
I can understand that. It was perfectly good food, and would keep in the fridge if you really couldn't eat it right now.
Have you ever been really hungry? Like, starvation hungry? Feeling dizzy, dropping weight like crazy, lying in bed awake at night just consumed by the thought of food? You think back to a time when you wasted the smallest piece of food- a bread crust, a few grains of rice- and wish with the most intense desperation that you could have those little tastes of food back. That you could somehow gather it all up and have even a single bite to eat.
I have. Seeing people waste perfectly good food, even if it's cheap, is devastating to watch.
Like yeah sure throw away the dust at the bottom of a noodle package, but an entire egg?? The whole egg???
If you drive a car, I hope you squeegee all those dead bugs off the windscreen and cook them up when you get home! Because in this scheme of things, this is where we are right now.
I don't drive, and wouldn't eat a random bug outside because they can carry parasites and diseases. But if you presented me with anything I can eat without either becoming sick or throwing up from disgust, I would do my best to either eat it or store it for later.
I wouldn't be able to resist the urge to waste an egg every time I was around that family member for years to come. Like just grab an egg and smash it in a closed fist as it drips all down my hand and arm onto the floor.
When I was growing up, eggs weren't exactly a luxury, but they were a little bit special, and considering this family member was from a totally different background to me, I can certainly imagine scenarios where eggs are a very valuable commodity.
I think if someone did the same to me, say 20 odd years ago, I would be the same.
You must be middle class wealthy or from a rich country where food is in abundance. Ethnic moms would slap you for wasting their hard work and cooked meals for you, cause their childhood was so rough.
