What do you do after Thanksgiving Dinner?

Thanksgiving guest brings own Tupperware and take leftovers BEFORE dinner is served. What should I have done?

  • My cousin Gus joined us for Thanksgiving dinner after several years of going to upscale restaurants for Thanksgiving. It was nice to see this fellow again but right before dinner the strangest thing happened. It was announced dinner would be ready in 5 minutes & Gus went to his car and brought in 3 large Tupperware containers. I though nothing of this until he actually starting filling them BEFORE dinner was served. The biggest container was filled with 3/4 of the stuffing that was prepared. He also did not hold back on filling the containers with slices of turkey. Other family members had to go without stuffing because of this. The whole family was flabbergasted & did not say anything. I can assume they were in complete shock. Gus is well off & certainly does not need all this food. Has this ever happened to anyone before? What would you have done in this situation? He said he'd be back for Christmas dinner, what should I do if he tries to take all the ham?

  • Answer:

    Gus sounds like an absolute swine. I strongly recommend that you lace the ham with a combination of industrial grade laxative and marinate it in horse urine. Sit back and wait for the glutton to dive in and help himself. This is what a family Christmas is all about

I would have been shocked too! That in INCREDIBLY rude. I personally would have gone into his tupperware and doled out some stuffing to my plate, then passed the container around the table for anyone else who wanted some. For Christmas, tell Gus that nobody is allowed to take leftovers home. Period.

Stop him and tell him he can have some if theres any left.

I would have just said, "Hey, Gus, maybe you could wait until everyone has eaten?" or if I'd noticed that something was running low, I'd have just gone and gotten his container. How RUDE! If he tries it again at Christmas, say something - try to be polite, and point out to him that you made all this food for EVERYONE and that you would be happy to share if there are leftovers.

That is absolutely atrocious! You should have spoken up. Don't let him steal your ham at Christmas! You have to be blunt about it b/c this guy obviously has no clue.

i would have stopped him and said nowe dont take leftovers until they ar actually leftovrs.

kindly let them know that is unacceptable and it will not be tolerated if it happens again, and that should have waiting until everyone has eating cuz thats rude

Don't invite him to Christmas dinner. If you do, make sure you talk to him about that..it was totally wrong!

Tell him it'll be $150. ahha JK. You need to speak up since you're the host. Say you don't mind if he took some to go but after dinner has been served and everyone has had their share.
