eating till there's nothing left

[akuma]

you're full but there are still 3 tortellini left, so you gobble them up.

i know you've felt this feeling of needing to finish up your meal or snack (must. polish. off. entire. bag. of. chips...) or maybe it's just me, i dunno.


my mom would sometimes resort to the predictable

"dont throw away food, there are starving people who would die for that!"

don't cook more food than you can eat.

[akuma]

again, this may be just me the glutton speaking, but after i do this im left with strange contradictory feelings like an achievement "word, i just mashed that meal" or a deriding "you fat fuck, you just ran through a entire large bag of salt vinegar kettle chips"

I used to do that all the time, when I was poor and would resort to the occasional dumpster dive. Of course, I would eat until I got sick and had to puke up my food. My ex used to get mad at me for that so I finally stopped. I think he was just mad cause he would pay for the food that would end up in the toilet.

it takes 20 minutes after the fact for your brain to realize that you're full...

so chill...

and then eat again!

i don't know if it's an asian thing, but all the asians i know clean their plate/rice bowl. and then you save every bit of leftover food from the family style plates, even just sauce (you can mix it with white rice the next day!) i think it's what mom taught us.

Tonight at Denny's -- because it's close to where I work the night shift -- I asked for a container as soon as I got my meal. I decided how much I should eat, putting the rest inside the container right away.

It worked out great. This technique is highly recommended, it works for 2 reasons.

1. A lot of us think we should always finish our plates because to do otherwise is wasteful. With my technique, you'll be finishing your plate!
2. When you keep all the food on your plate, it gets all nasty looking, especially if you drown food in ketchup like I do. So you're looking at the food all nasty with bits of other food on it and most of us don't think it's worth taking home. By putting it away right away, you keep the food looking good.

i'm totally guilty of this as well... I just feel like it takes way more effort to wrap up those 3 raviolis and put them in the fridge when it's so easy to just force them down my throat. I regret it everytime but I do it every day.

[sumtinsumtin]

oh boy, i just did this, two bowls of spagettii and now i'm feelin it, kinda dizzy.
gotta remember not to do this again...

don't you get in shit if you leave one grain of rice? i always thought it was rude...

[Killjoy]

my mom always told me that if i didn't eat every grain of rice on my plate, i wouldn't be able to snag me a handsome strapping buck of a husband.

i may be girthtastic now but hey, i'm going to have one fine ass husband. moms don't lie.

if you don't clean your plate

you don't get any dessert

[acid_squid]

if you eat everything on your plate and clean it with your tongue then you never need to wash the dishes.
