Currently listening to: Post To Be – Omarion feat. Chris Brown & Jhene Aiko
If your dude come close to me
He gon’ want to ride off in a ghost with me (I’ll make him do it)
I might let your boy chauffeur me
But he gotta eat the booty like groceries
Growing up, my family had an unspoken rule when it came to sharing food: take what you want with clean chopsticks or silverware, but once it touches your mouth, it’s yours—no reaching back for more with the same utensil. If we wanted seconds, we’d grab a fresh pair. Simple. Hygienic.
Brenda, on the other hand, loves to double dip. I’ve learned to grab my food before her chopsticks make their way from her mouth back into the communal plate. She will double dip her food in sauces instead of pouring a small amount on her plate. This practice is common amongst Koreans and other Asians, but I can’t say I’m a fan.
Then there are my friends who insist I have to try their food—after they’ve already taken a bite. I always decline. But if they want to try mine? Go for it. That’s on them.
Because of this, I usually opt for my own plate instead of family-style dining with my girlfriends.
Am I the only one who does this or feels this way?
