My kids react so differently to food sharing. My daughter wants to share everything. She rolls around in my lap wanting a bite for every other one I take. She has a special sharing song she hums as we eat together. She beams like she just discovered a diamond mine.

My son reacts to sharing food like an angry mutant warthog by looking confused, then betrayed as realization sets in, then angry. He puffed up and grunts in territorial display. Next he vents his stink glands and raises his attack crest. Like most men when we have to share food.

My wife has an evolutionary psychology explanation she says covers these behaviors. But she shares it as we eat from separate plates.

It is selfish, i know...But a big pet peeve of mine is when the waiter brings out two spoons for the desert i ordered. Now i have to have the awkward conversation on why no one else can have my desert. How rude.

I don’t do food sharing. You have your plate and I’ll have mine. I’m greedy

When my kids were younger, it was like hyenas on a rotting carcass, elbows flying, bumping each other out of the way to get a scrap. Lucky not to lose a finger and that was my wife
