DH licking his plate every dinner time

[Allabouts]

AIBU to be annoyed by it?

Nearly every time we eat something, he licks the plate clean like a bloody dog.

Long, big licks up the plate.

I cannot stand it! It doesn't gross me out, I just find it so outlandishly lacking in class

AIBU? He says he's just enjoying his dinner, every bit of it.

Plates, not olates... Licking olates is just inexcusable.

Also, let people enjoy fiods; like fiords, but shorter.

Won't even go in to the amount he passes wind

Thought so somehow.

but why do people get so outraged by petty stuff people do thats a bit slobby in the privacy of their own homes?

I'm not outraged. Just wouldn't want to live with someone who licked his plate in front of me after every meal - long big licks up the plate like a dog. If I saw someone doing it in public I'd say to myself "at least I don't have to go home with him" And I'd be a bit concerned if plate-licking was necessary for his relaxation.

Does he slurp hot drinks?

robot not just you I also "wee in the shower, lick your plate, hang the washing out in your nightie" onesie (I did get unwanted comments from a neighbor who saw me in my nightie, hence the onesie now)

If he's cooking food that is so delicious that he wants to lick the last delicous trace from the plate, then what on earth is the problem? Let the man enjoy his food in his own home! I occasionally lick my plate at home - it's the sign of a REALLY good meal

Oh hi @Allabout's husband! Decided to join us did ya?

I have loooooowwwwwww standards and even I think a fully grown man licking his plate is pretty grim.

Lets hope we dont live on the same street... we would bring the house prices down!
I walked to the corner shop with wet hair the other day... Civilisation is in tatters

This is gross. My ex used to do this. My hubby now is a right caveman but even he doesn’t do plate licking. LTB.

Curious as to how he became your DH!??!!!
Was this something he hid till after?

I always lick my plate after a cooked brekkie with beans and runny egg. Rarely do it for other meals and only at home.
DH hates me doing it.
I hate him taking a book into the loo with him, so that makes us quits.

Its absolutely disgusting!

Foul

Isn't that what baguette is for?

That's grim and really unattractive!

That would drive me crazy. Disgusting.

Fucking hell. DH would be in the garden if he did that.

That's revolting
And weirdly desperate
He's not starving.

I did this as a child! Makes me feel sick thinking about it now!!

I wouldn't mind it at all if it's at home and not in public. I'd be chuffed if my cooking elicited that kind of response, unfortunately DH only ever seems to lick his plate when BIL's wife cooks!

I think you must be joking op - I can't imagine anyone marrying a man who licks his plate.
I shall go and adjust my Victorian bonnet now.

Eeeergh that's grim. I'd be drawing a swift red line under that tbh

They do those dog food bowls with shapes in to make the dinner last longer (stops the dog eating too fast too)put his dinner in that!😂

So unlike the home life of our own dear Queen.

It's revolting but I suppose it saves on washing up
