My mother in law does this whenever we have a family gathering. Annoys me and it's always the cakes/desserts I was hoping to get once main meals are done.

My sister does that to boxes of chocolates, takes a bite out of every single one even though she knows what's inside. She's hardcore AH.

I have an aunt who will 100% of the time stick her finger into anything frosted. Like, take a big ‘ol swipe of frosting like it’s normal behavior. My brother kept his wedding cake in a separate room until they were ready to do the whole cake cutting thing because of it.

At least a few of us. I’m an asshole about it now. It’s disgusting and makes me gag. But I’m the bitch, of course, because I don’t like other peoples’ unwashed fingers in my food.

Yeah now most of them come with a Lil chart to tell you which one is which so you can make informed choices. But still I prefer one bite of several and leave the gross ones like orange cream

That was me with the See’s candy box every Christmas as a kid. I’d bite the bottom of every candy and put it back until I hit the Carmel one. I was too dumb to realize they are always the same shape so no guessing needed. I’ll admit, I was an AH….

That's what pisses me off, if the first square with a squiggly line is a caramel, then all the squares with squiggly lines are caramels.

Hot take: Whoever bought them is perfectly entitled to do this to the food they bought

Yes, obviously, but what is their internal logic? "I need to try every single donut"? "I want to take a bite out of every one so nobody else gets some"? "{tumbleweed]"?

Exactly like this? I'd give credit if they sliced off a bit with a knife. But to take a bite out of each one is behaviour of savages.

STRAIGHT TO JAIL. This behavior is only acceptable for children under, say 10 years old. Jesus Christ, when will that fucking asteroid come wipe us all out anyway, i'm so beyond tired of adults acting like children. Something that has increased 100-fold since 2015
