You’ll Spoil Your Appetite
Don’t spoil that appetite! “When my boyfriend got home from work 30 minutes before dinner and grabbed a snack, and I warned him he was going to spoil his appetite.” Ah, the good old “don’t eat before dinner” rule that our mothers verbally drilled into our heads. Lest you spoil that appetite!
Believe it or not, in spite of what our mothers told us, consuming a single protein bar or even a handful of chips won’t fill you up instantly. You’ll still have plenty of room for meatloaf and potatoes. But we’re so used to hearing that on repeat as kids that it sticks with us. We’re betting that her boyfriend proceeded to eat his dinner with little to no hesitation.
