1. Ice-cream mining
It’s not wrong to aim for the brownie morsel but take a proportionate amount of ice cream to go with it.
2. Asking for the first or last bite
…of someone else’s tasty snack.
3. Taking a huge juicy middle crustless bite of someone else’s sandwich
Any plate of food only has two or three perfect bites contained therein. Unless the “host” specifically directs us to take one of these prized bites, we should back off.
4. Splitting a cookie, and taking the biggest portion
This also applies to sharing bottles of drinks, the entire world of desserts, and anything at all.
5. Pizza-cheese thieving
When the cheese from the neighboring slice gets stuck to ours and leaves a naked dough triangle behind, that mozzarella needs to be put back where it came from — using a nearby utensil if possible.The cheese that oozes to the middle of the pie; that’s up for grabs.
6. Abandoning chocolates in the box
It doesn’t matter if the insides are revealed to be the curse of nougat or pineapple filling. That chocolate must be eaten or thrown away.
7. Talking with food in your mouth
Some old rules of etiquette are obsolete. (Who doesn’t lean an elbow on the table?) This one is timeless.
8. Claiming fullness then eating your friend’s food
A bite is fine. But those who say they’re full when someone is preparing or ordering food, should not dig into that dish once it’s ready.
9. Sneaking icing
Please understand that others don’t appreciate your finger-lickin’on their cake.
10. Double dipping
Depends on the company. If they’re real friends, they should understand that a half fry without ketchup is a baked potato. If dip appears at a party with more than five people, we are expected to keep our cooties to ourselves.
