What? She doesn't eat anything and just gets it bagged? That's a problem with her. Probably just avoiding to purge it later. I don't know, just a theory based on that behaviour. You need to ask bro what's up.Originally Posted by Galvatran

Doggy bags are for taking home *leftover* food that you can't eat at the venue... not to get first grab and end up with a free second meal (if they are actually eating at the meal in addition to what they are taking home in the doggy bag).
I think that is really poor form.
At least wait until after the meal to see if anything is leftover, and then, only take food if the host offers it voluntarily to the guests at the end of the meal/visit. You don't ask for it, or even hint at it. The hosts are already paying to feed several people and spending a fair bit of their time to prepare it and host the meal... it's selfish and completely disrespectful for a guest to ask for free food in addition to the meal they are already getting for free, and, to get first pick before anyone knows if there is enough to cover the entire meal.
There's also the psychology of most people in a social setting, not wanting to be the one taking the last slice or last serving in a dish. If there is less to start with, people are less likely to have seconds, and not enjoy the meal as much as they would if they go home full.

Its really poor form from the guest. Wait untill everybody is full.
Eat early before she arrives and has a chance to bag it.

yea, what Griffin said, I'm blown away, I've never seen anything like it. perhaps she grew up in a strange jungle setting where if she didn't get in quick the other wolves would beat her to it and not leave anything but scraps.
Usually at out get togethers, there's too much food as everyone brings something and whoever hosts has to either convince people to take food home or deal with leftovers(I like leftovers) for a couple days afterwards.
No. My brother's wife eats with the rest of us. She just grabs a doggie bag before anyone starts eating.

Ok, I think I get it now.I was thinking of a restaurant environment. What Griffin said pretty much covers it.
