i think i know exactly what you mean, hebz.

i sometimes feel like that too... esp. with people who tend to eat quickly. i feel like taking their food away from them and then eating it myself like REALLY SLOWLY whilst enjoying every little bit of food, while they watch hungrily.
but i think as long as you just WANT people's food, it doesn't make you a bad person.
it's not unless you actually go ahead and grab their plate/platter/bowl/sammich/etc, put it right beside your plate/platter/bowl/sammich/etc in front of you and start eating both AND slap their hand away when they reach over to get their food back... now that MIGHT make you a not-so-good-and-therefore-more-likely-to-be a bad person.
i was a good person today if i might say so myself.

i shared my veggie quesadilla with huzbizzleshizzledizzle...
i'm so lucky alhumdilillah that i married someone who doesn't mind helping me finish my food. that was actually on my list of requirements.
1) God-fearing
2) patient
3) willing to help me clear my plate at mealtimes
