I have a friend with some food intolerances and what I think are strange ideas about food. She sticks to branded goods and has a very restricted list of what she will eat and drink.
She is very vocal on making her dislike/disgust known about what I'm eating/cooking/drinking. I find it rude. I also find it very hard to offer her much to eat or drink when she visits. She makes little effort when I visit her which is much less often.
Yesterday she was visiting and was looking in my child's Halloween cauldron. She kept on making comments about how tempted she was by the contents and I told her she couldn't have any as it wasn't mine to share. I offered her the snacks that she usually has and that I get in especially for her. She turned them down but continued glancing over at my child's cauldron and making comments about 'fancying something else'. I didn't give in but felt mean.
I'm getting fed up with her but wonder if I'm being a bit inhospitable. TBH I don't really believe her about the food intolerance as it's inconsistent and the faddiness seems very attention seeking at times but go along with it and get food and drink in that she likes.
