[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. today we went for pizza, and dh wanted a 12-inch pizza for around 8 people... It's around $2 in US money per pizza.. I insisted we get at least 4 because we were hungry. I feel he's trying too hard not to appear excessive with spending, maybe with his family. I don't know... in the US we order extra large pizzas all the time.. most of his family didn't like pizza the last time we were here.. they all did eat at least a slice since we got so many today :-)

DP here.  Yes, eating is part of the deal for my friend's husband's family, also - there is never enough food, but they make a show of "just cooking the right amount" because it is all gone.  It is all gone because they made a dinner for eight, but for TWELVE people.  So, I think you are accurate with the "appearance" thing.  You need to step up and do what is right for your family.  My friend used to stop at whatever was open (usually McDonald's, which she never eats, so they must have been hungry!) on the way home, which I admit is not anyone's idea of a holiday. [/quote]
