The Last Bite SyndromeI suppose I first noticed it when I had roommates in college: the unspoken rule of not finishing food that isn’t yours. I guess I’m lucky in that my roommates even had that instinct to begin with. Still, the behaviors that come out of it are interesting, namely The Last Bite Syndrome: the tendency of a household to continue to eat away at something but not actually finish it. Through the years, I’ve seen slivers of pie so thin they could pick a lock. The most recent example is this loaf of banana bread I recently came home to. Strange, the things that courtesy can do.
