To not have to be in competition for bloody food!

[sayerville]

Alright, this is petty.
My DH is so greedy. All I want is a glass of wine and packet of crisps on a Friday night after a crappy week at work, not much to ask. I go to get the crisps and he's eaten the bloody lot.
Pissed me off that he's so selfish and inconsiderate.

Send him out to get more.

I always hide a bag or two. Under the tea towels is a good spot.

What's he say when you raise the issue?

He just bawls that isn't he allowed to eat anything? I just said he's been selfish and greedy and inconsiderate.
He's like it with anything, any treats I buy so I am stopping buying them, even though I am then denying myself.

no room in my tea towel drawer, get what you're saying but I shouldn't have to hide them

YANBU, my ex husband was like this, so fucking selfish and childish.

You shouldn’t have to hide stuff but I did. It sucks.

I hide my junky food in a cupboard and I say that it's his birthday/ Christmas gifts in it so not to look worked for 3 years so far.

It's like living with a teenager who can't control his eating habits

Abi356 Wished I could get away with that one!

Tbh I’m the guilty party for this in my home.

In our house we each have our own bag full of crisps, and our own treat box. We are not allowed to touch each other's crisp bag/ treat box.

I don't think they think! My DH is a nightmare to share tortilla and dips with - he doesn't dip, he SCOOPS. The bloody dip is all gone in seconds. I now divide the dip between two ramekins and give him his half
OP I think you might need to resort to writing your name on food that is meant for you. Maybe buy two and write his name on his. Petty I know, but annoying to have a greedy guts beating you to it each time

I feel your pain. I m last one in at night from work and dc frequently eat most of the cheese! Sometimes I just want a cheese roll and a glass of wine.
Both dc are adults so do buy food but not the night they decide to demolish it.
As for the wine I chill that in my car in winter at work so it's not at home till I am . In summer there's the work fridge but I put a sticker saying RUBY S WINE DO NOT TOUCH on it

Sounds like my DH . Very selfish and inconsiderate.
I would buy some next time you're out and hide them.

And yes I am petty but make no apologies for it

Start stashing the chocolate bars in tampax boxes - if he finds them, well, I'd say they're deserved.
It is annoying and the day he realises my bedroom cabinet is not permanently full of presents will be a sad day for me indeed. xD

I hide the best stuff behind the cleaning basket. It's the only way.

Can you buy a pack of crisps for the evening at lunchtime and bring them home from work? Or buy them on the way home? Then you'll have a packet and there won't be one for him.

Mate, you shouldn't have to, but you do. I hate goodies every week. Top spots:

1. the oven
2. top of the kitchen cupboards
3. behind the TV
4. in the washing machine
5. in the freezer
6. under the bed

SometimesI forget where I have hidden them.

OTOH, you can get lockable fridge boxes, but I don't think they have to be in the fridge.

I think either I don't buy them or I just have to resort to hiding stuff, sad we have to resort to this isn't it!

I used to hide stuff.....

Basically with cleaning stuff, behind tins of food (where he didnt go), near the hoover etc... lol

Only way OP - men are greedy gits

Behind the bath panel. Handbags you aren't currently using. Pockets of winter coats. Inside boots. Heaps of hidey holes.

Hide it with the cleaning stuff

By eating it all, he is making it so that YOU aren't allowed to eat anything!

Bet he hasn't thought of that.

Just buy 2 packs next time. Write your names on each one!
