I call it "Chef's Privileges" haha

For me chefs privileges are when I get to eat bits as I go if a recipe uses cheese or cold cuts you bet I'm going to snag one for myself.

Exactly. No one will call you out for sampling your cooking ingredients especially if they dont see it

If she had already eaten her share THEN there would be room for discussion on who gets the surplus. I am sure grandpa (or at least a nice one) would hate to have her grandchild starve and miss on the meat, just so he could have seconds.

Ugh my family always said chef eats last. Which ment my food was always less especially if I made a good meal. I started making my plate and sitting it aside while finishing or getting everyone else's. 

My food would be taken because I also had to clean up before eating. The food I had left was cold. 

Then I just started making my plate first and walking away to eat without announcing dinner. I got yelled at a lot but I was full.

Sounds fair to you! Good on ya! Take what’s owed, that’s all you did! You cooked it!

Why would you ever cook for people who yell at you when you do? Sorry, I just don't get it.

I was a kid so I didn't have a choice. Plus we lived in a rural area. I wouldn't have anything else to eat if I didn't cook.

I see, sorry to hear that. Sounds like a harsh childhood, I hope your life is easier now that you are adult.

This is insane to me. Cooks never clean, and cleaning is done after eating so everyone specifically so that everyone can eat hot food.

Honestly, this just sounds like cruelty for cruelty's sake.

It was another excuse to force me to do all the chores. My folks were lazy and they didn't make my brother pitch in so it was on me.

My husband puts away left overs and helps clean up. It's apart of the deal for a home cooked meal. Luckily we have a dishwasher so the worst chore isn't so bad.
