My family's food based character code that I learned as a child

Here's what I learned:

1. Extra Large eggs are just right. People who buy jumbo size eggs have no self restraint.

2. Women who don't make their own spaghetti sauce are probably whores.

3. If everyone has a portion of the meal and there's a little left whoever says "Does anyone mind if I finish it off?" is a pig.

4. People who make too much of a fuss over what they won't eat are self indulgent and can't be trusted.

1. Are you Italian?

I mean because of the spaghetti sauce thing.

2. funny...

people are just so weird. Especially when it comes to food prejudices. My mother is simply flabbergasted that I have no interest in traditional "Thanksgiving" food. I'd just as soon eat sushi or Thai as turkey and she can't wrap her brain around the concept.

Item #3 - what happens if a pig doesn't finish off the last little bit? Does it get dumped?
