[quote=Anonymous]I say whatever amount she buys, buy the same and take home what doesn't get consumed.
My sister has 4 children, pre-teens and teens 3 of them boys. We have none. She is willfully oblivious to this when it comes to situations like this.
I love them, but I am not paying for the massive amounts of food they eat. My sister refused to see what the big deal splitting bills were.  I had enough. In a similar situation like yours we went shopping and she insisted that we split the bill again. I filled a cart with all the things that my H and I like to eat. 
She got angry that I pulled so much food for just 2 people. I said "oh so you're saying you shouldn't have to pay for food that you or your family have no intention of eating, but I'm supposed to?"
She accused me of intentionally running up a bill. I told her I was keeping things even and pointed out that she always took home all the leftover and uneaten food at the end so whatever we don't eat we will do the same.

After that we didnt split food costs any more. [/quote]
