Make him buy his own ham.

Maybe make him buy his own fridge to put it in.

In fact, just chuck him out. Have all the ham.

Moist ham shall reigneth!

What a cunt. Just leave him.

YvaineStormhold · 22/10/2016 21:59

*I literally haven't had any ham since 2009!"

Mine is even worse, not only does he not wrap the ham, instead of taking a slice at a time and eating it,
he rips bits off the whole packet at random so you come to make a sandwich and even though half a packet of ham is left, there isn't a whole slice to be had, every piece is half eaten and the whole packet looks like it has been mauled by a dog. It gives me serious rage.

iseenodust · 22/10/2016 22:05

He needs a ham fridge of his own in the garage. Along with a bed.

FabFiveFreddie · 22/10/2016 22:05

😂😂😂

Schrivelled (in my head in German accent)

Double 😂😂😂

GabsAlot · 22/10/2016 22:06

lily thats just bloody abusive

to ham!

RubbishMantra · 22/10/2016 22:07

Put a lock on the fridge? Then you can supervise his care of opened ham. Those plastic take-away containers are just the right size for ham. Or a zip-lock bag.

You simply must educate this man, re. his disregard of ham treatment! ...or buy a mini fridge (hidden) filled with humanely treated ham and wine.

Seriously though, dSis does this when she comes to stay. Eat half an avocado, and place an inch of clingy on the other half. To her defense, avocados are cheap as chips, or free (pick 'em off the trees) in the country she lives in. Perhaps give him a slice of ham, tell him to plant in the garden, and a ham tree will grow?

TheSnorkMaidenReturns · 22/10/2016 22:09

Kill him with fire

rainbowstardrops · 22/10/2016 22:13

Shock at PickledLilly's poor excuse of a partner!!!! I'd rip his arms off for that!

SallyR0se · 22/10/2016 22:19

Hmmm... Mine won't do this with meat products as I'm a veggie & he's learned the hard way. Everything else is fair game, though... The worst is cereal packets / crisp bags with a clothes peg / clip on top. He just places the peg on top without rolling the bag back down, thus negating the purpose of the peg. Ditto bottle tops which he just places on top without twisting. I don't buy anything fizzy!
He gets the tin thing now, but once he puts something in a tin he forgets it exists & goes out & buys more of the same things we already have...

HemanOrSheRa · 22/10/2016 22:23

Ah see. That's not fucking funny is it, AppleJac? My DP does this. In fact he did it just two days ago. I'd bought some ham for sandwiches. Particularly for DS who is like an eating machine at the moment. So I thought he could have it as an after school snack. Maybe DP could take ham sandwiches to work. The greedy fucker ate the whole lot as a snack! I was not amused.

19Hannah · 22/10/2016 22:24

This is why I'm single. I can't imagine what I'd do to someone who did this to the ham Angry

ftw · 22/10/2016 22:25

YABU just for saying 'fucking ham' and 'propley' in the same sentence because it conjured images of David Cameron to my mind.

Also laughing at no ham since 2009.Grin

Thefishewife · 22/10/2016 22:25

I am buying it as I type thank you

I have it worse here.... mine either has his hands down his trews scratching his backside or his fingers up his snout and he doesnt wash his hands after going to pee!!!!! he is atm in time devouring a huge bag full of popcorn which no one else will now eat urrrgggghhhhh

TempusEedjit · 22/10/2016 22:31

Why don't you buy two packs - his and hers ham? Then if he opens yours before he finishes his you can have a proper go at him.

RedSoloCup · 22/10/2016 22:42

The issue here is not ham. The issue is FOOD WRAPPING.

I can't have a successful relationship with anyone that doesn't correctly wrap food, the eejits!!!

Patchouli666 · 22/10/2016 22:51

Cereal packets in our house. Eldest daughter's boyfriend and also someone else in the house ( this happened before 'Billy' was part of the furniture too) gets their cereal and doesn't push down or fold over the bag soothe remaining cereal stays crispy.

Patchouli666 · 22/10/2016 22:53

So the not soothe

SleepingTiger · 22/10/2016 22:58

Leave him alone......

Watch. Don't speak. Just listen.

Carrados · 22/10/2016 23:12

We just re-seal the ham in the plastic it came in and the ham doesn't dry.

Of course you should LTB. This is a ham wrapping issue after all, as has been pointed out.

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 22/10/2016 23:29

DH does this with cheese too. Drives me mental. I don't understand how he can't work out why the end of the cheese has gone all dry and cracked - OH MAYBE BECAUSE YOU LEFT IT UNWRAPPED AGAIN, EH???!

ShelaghTurner · 22/10/2016 23:36

I'm battling people who open multiple packets of fucking cheese. I'm lazy, I buy sliced. I counted four open and shrivelling packs in the fridge this afternoon Angry
