Two burgers and chips is too much?

[UnicornMadeOfPinkGlitter]

Just that. Everyone else is having bolognaise but H doesn’t want it. We have some burgers in the fridge so trying to be nice I said he can have burgers.
now he’s sulking because I won’t go to the supermarket to buy burger cheese and some frozen chips! For clarity he doesn’t drive so it would be difficult for him to go but I’ve said why do you want chips when you’ve asked for two burgers.
for clarity it’s two large burgers in buns with salad and was going to put potato salad and coleslaw on the side. But he wants chips!
he’s now saying he doesn’t want anything.

iabu- chips with two burgers is fine
ianbu- two burgers are plenty.

The chips are irrelevant if you're not going to the shop for the rest of the burger stuff anyway. He can surely decide for himself how big his appetite is and what he wants to eat. But you're not being unreasonable not going after making another meal. He can go and get it himself.

do you have a potato? get your Dh to peel it, slice it, put in oven and you will have chips in 30 mins
I have never heard of burger cheese?

I haven't voted in your poll. YABU to think the quantity of food is the issue here. He's sulking and refusing any food now because you won't go out and buy him frozen chips? Fuck off is the only appropriate response to this behaviour. Does he always act as if you are running a cafe?

He's a dick.

He should also learn how to drive.

He could also take charge of the shopping/meal planning/cooking if he wants to ensure he always gets his choice of food.

Frankly I wouldn't have given him the choice of the burgers....the meal of the day is spag Bol...that's it, it's what children are expected to do - why is he any different?

Individually wrapped slices of plastic cheese. Disgusting but in a good way!

He sounds utterly pathetic. Tell him there’s no menu choice, it’s take it or leave it.
Ridiculous man!

Is he 5 years old?

Are you his wife or his carer? He needs to grow up

I thought I'd misread and you had a stroppy teen in the house.

Tbf I wouldn't want burgers without chips either😅 BUT I'd also expect to get these ingredients myself.

Tell him to get his own fucking chips!

Do you have fry light and potatoes? Tell him to make his fucking own !

Honestly , what's with some of these selfish , sulky man children 😒 🙄

Good god - why are you pandering to him? He sounds like a petulant, spoilt man-baby. He should have what everyone else is having or shut the hell up complaining and make something for himself. And damn well learn to drive instead of ordering you around like an uber eats driver. Fgs!

he’s now saying he doesn’t want anything

Sorted dinner then 👍 if he brings it up again just remind him that he said this.

Let him go without then , he is an adult

YANBU. He's having like a spoilt brat.

Sulking is unacceptable. Don't entertain it.

So he’s a controlling wanker who turns the atmosphere sour unless he gets his own way and has you running round after him and his preferences then.
Yuck.

Sounds alike quite a nice dinner. Tell him to order some chips on Just Eat if he’s that desperate for some.

If he’s saying he won’t have anything then, let him go without. I would. I’d enjoy watching the performance. As if him refusing dinner is a problem for anyone else.

Pandering never ends well.

It’s ok not to want what’s cooked. It’s then the responsibility of the person refusing the cooked meal to sort them selves out.

If he wants chips, he can go and get them himself.

Are you the thread police? I’m glad the op posted, I’m surprised that no ones pointed out to her that this is abusive. The op is walking on eggshells and her oh is going to ‘spoil the day with his mood’, because she won’t drop everything and drive to the shop to buy his bloody chips. She’s made a bolognese, he doesn’t want it. She’s offered to make 2 massive burgers with multiple sides (including one potato based), but no, he can’t possibly eat his burgers unless the op goes out and buys him fucking chips. I suspect his ‘I don’t even want anything now’ comment is designed to make the op feel anxious and guilty, rather than him genuinely not being hungry now. I wouldn’t be surprised if she got arsey little digs later about how hungry and upset he is that he didn’t even get any dinner. What an absolute prick of a man to go out of his way to ruin his family’s whole days because he didn’t get his chips.
Op- what exactly does he do when he gets in one of these moods?

Ah right. He's a mood arsehole.

I'd take him up on his No dinner option then. Fuck him.

Exactly exactly.
