[quote=Anonymous]Leave a running grocery list out (our is on the fridge door).  He can add to it throughout the week.  It can be hard to sit down Sat morning and come up with a bunch of ideas (esp for people who aren't used to grocery shopping or meal planning).  If he looks in the cupboard on Tuesday and thinks "gee, I'd really like some chips and salsa but we don't have any", then chips and salsa go on the list.  He won't get it this week, but it'll be there next week.  DH learned early on that if he wants something, it had better be on the list by the time I go to the store.

Sometimes simple organization can make a difference, too.  Rather than putting all of the veggies in one place and the dips elsewhere, pull a few veggies onto a single shelf with the dip, right at eye level in the fridge.  Sometimes "there is nothing to eat" simply means "I don't see an obvious complete snack, and I'm not creative enough to assemble my own from pieces located through tithe kitchen".

Or it can mean "I'm not really hungry, just wandering through the kitchen out of boredom, and nothing in particular struck me as irresistible".  Whole different issue :)[/quote]
