DH keeps eating my snacks!

Lighthearted ish.

I've just had a little grumble at DH which felt justified at the time but now I think I might be BU.

We have a treats/snacks bit in the cupboard, things like crisps and chocolate. While we do share, I have particular favourites and so does he. I never touch his, but lately he's started eating some or all of mine before I get in, then opening his later knowing full well I won't eat his.

Tonight I've gone for a snack and found he's eaten what I was looking forward to as a bad-day treat, leaving his untouched for later. He's even left the wrapper in the cupboard.

Would I BU to kill him have a word? It sounds so petty but it's driving me mad!

I keep my treats in the salad drawer. DH would never think to look there Grin

My DM disguises her snacks by storing them inside an empty doritos bag, as no one in the house likes them. So far no one's figured it out.

Stop snacking for health reasons and give DH a lecture on health every time you see him eating snacks.

I'm amazed that you both snack. ^

Stick to mealtimes and problem solved.

I think we need to know what your snacks are...and what his are? Cake Gin

I dont really do snacks. Whats wrong with a bit of toast if youre peckish

Mine eats the kids' snacks... I have to hide everything. He's got complete fridge and cupboard blindness thankfully, so all it takes is putting them behind some other items or below eye level.
Empty wrappers, hot chocolate, coffee tubs here, too. THAT is bloody annoying.

My friend hides her snacks - or anything she's bought that she doesn't want her DH to see - inside a Tampax box. He would NEVER look in there.
