[quote=Anonymous]I'm glad to see that I'm not alone. My husband did grow up food insecure (came here alone as a refugee) so I sort of get it. He doesn't cook or shop so I've simply adjusted how I approach both. He insists he doesn't eat dinner - something I knew when we got married - but over the years I've learned to cook 'extra' of food that I know he will eat nonetheless... not sitting down at the table with us of course but grabs portions as I'm trying to get the kids' meals on plates. He also does very weird things like eating a few bites of a cookie or leaving the packaging undone so things go stale. My kids know to hide food that they want to save for later. We once were staying with family and he took pieces off all the chocolate that my pregnan SIL had bought; I thought the house was going to explode. It literally makes me crazy at times, but in the abstract I realize it mostly comes from a very sad childhood.[/quote]
