My last bite should be of my favorite part of the meal. Finish my least favorite part first.
The greatest compliment I can pay a meal is that I couldn’t choose which part to make my last bite.
I do this too. It took a while for my wife to fully understand that if she wanted to try something on my plate, she better not wait til the last few bites
Yes!
I also save the last bit of candy or other snacks, sometimes for days, until I really want it (most recently, I left the last 2 pieces in a box of Buncha Crunch for over a week. Yeah, it’s weird. I know).
My partner used to finish things I’d leave, which upset me. Then he’d finish it but replace it with an unopened packet, which I appreciated but it still bugged me.
He doesn’t understand it at all, but he’s learned that saving the last bit for “the right time” is important to me. Seeing him leave my little crazy treats around for days at a time makes me feel so loved.
I used to do this but I have noticed one slight downside to this. My food goes cold by my last bite so the last bite does not have the optimal flavor.
My new thing is I try to eat my favorite part when I feel like the food is starting to go cold so I can still hit that peak.
I suppose that is one of the few upsides of being a fast eater.
I used to do this too, but then realized it was a big factor in my over eating. If there’s too much food on the plate then I don’t get to enjoy all of my favorite element unless I stuff myself.
