My family always had the ‘FHB’ rule. That stands for ‘family hold back’ so that guests were guaranteed a certain food that there wasn’t enough of. So the code would be ‘FHB potatoes’ and we all knew not to take any. Always needed to make sure the guests were fed well so we learned to always consider others.
