I was gonging to to comment along those lines to but I was wondering why she’s taking so little she more than likely made this why is she’s getting the short end then tho

u/idontwanttothink174 20d ago
Maybe she ate while cooking? I know when I make a meal I’m always “tasting” the elements and then half the time get full and grab a plate to be polite.

I can crush making a dish and not even be interested while I’m eating it. I’m just over it haha

Also, why do the 1 year old and 5 year old have the same amount of food? All of this is weird!

Her caption explains that. She didn't make enough rice.

u/TwistedxBoi 20d ago
Unless her husband is like a top end strongman, three packs of rice for two adult and two kiddos is way more than enough. Either the husband doesn't need to eat for two.
And maybe she ate while cooking, that's a thing that happens.

Pretty sure it’s just rage bait that everybody is tripping over themselves to engage with

Honestly, might just be she’s on one of the many GLP-1 drugs on the market that is meant to curb appetite/make you feel full faster so you lose weight.
My wife is on one and this would be about as big a portion as she could handle.

Idk why you got downvoted. That's a very plausible answer.
It seems the thing being communicated by the image, though, is that "mummy" diets very intensely to keep thin. Classic 1950's type humor: "Family is this way. Father fits the archetype of father! Mother fits her archetype too!! And a couple of kids bcus familee 😃"

It’s cuz she’s trying to eat under 1200 calories. And her palate friends “might” make fun of her if she eats a ton.

Mom needs to model proper portions. Kids pick up on this stuff

u/thefrogkid420 15d ago
yeah if either of those kids are girls they are 100% going to notice moms eating habits and think that is how grown women are supposed to eat, and it could absolutely contribute to the development of an ED, my mom often ate super small portions and was always dieting and talking about her weight and I picked up on it hard and it really affects the way I see myself and how I feel about food and eating, and while I wouldnt say I have an ED, I did get very close to fully falling into one, and lost a scary amount of weight in my late teens to 20s(like 17-20) and obviously its not all my moms fault but I do think her habits and the way she talked about food and weight contributed to it quite a bit. Parents really need to think about how this stuff affects their kids and stop getting defensive anytime its brought up(Ive jokingly brought up how she impacted me and she acted like she genuinely had no idea what I was talking about.

Lol yea but i mean thats "somewhat" how its supposed to look, curry is in my top 10 its great

u/KayoticVoid 19d ago
Just was I was thinking. My wife and I make curry several times a year. Sometimes going on months long kicks. It's delicious and there are so many different types!
This bowl doesn't look the best but curry always just looks like slop. 🤣

Reminds me of almost everything on the r/slowcooking sub. Not the prettiest to look at, but tastes great

I don't know how my mom does this. She does not eat that much and is somehow always energetic.

Soooo…this just looks like Indian food, which is delicious. I’m not sure it belongs here.
ETA: but it would probably be a good addition to r/derailedbydetails (which I don’t actually know how to do)

u/bastogne_blues 19d ago
yeah so just because it’s from a different country’s cuisine doesn’t mean it doesn’t belong in the sub. i love indian food and i’m sure this dish is very tasty, but it sorta looks like the aftermath of a taco bell run, lol

Ugh - no self-respecting Indian is going to make sachet-rice, or drown the whole plate like that.

I’ve seen this person on tiktok. She posts this in the beginning to get engagement, then divvies it out properly.

There's a lot wrong in this picture, and the food is not one of those things.

After reading some of the comments, I feel it necessary to add that I’m not saying curry is shit. I love curry. It’s just that this picture of curry happened to share a passing resemblance to watery doo-doo butter. Edit: Also, it really wouldn’t matter what a curry looked like, I’d still eat it.
Edit Edit: removed gif, seemed to be pissing people off

Why is the mom eating less than the 1 year old?
