I don't mean throwing popcorn or grapes for someone to catch in their mouth. I don't mean feeding bears or ducks. I mean in anger, threw food. If you did see it, what would you think?

He threw a plate of eggs at the wall because he didn't like how I cooked them. Needless to say that was eye opening.

(3,656 posts)when I was sitting and waiting in a drive-thru line. When the "gentleman" in front of me reached the window, he began having a heated exchange with the cashier. He apparently did not like the way his order had been handled, or how he was being treated, and when he was handed his meal, he threw his milkshake back at the clerk and drove away in a hurry. She was a kid, maybe 17, and was shaken and being consoled by the manager when I pulled up. Both she and the window were covered in vanilla shake. I asked the manger what happened and she just replied "Some people...."

(2,477 posts)Bored out of our skulls at a restaurant we worked it, I had a spatula and my best mate had some used dinner rolls.
A baseball game ensued in the dishwashing era.
Still laughing about that shit to this day.

Life has been immensely better since our separation for both my kids and myself.

(22,054 posts)A very famous conductor had a party at a NYC restaurant with lots of liquor. After dinner he picked up a buttered roll and threw it at one of the guests. Then another guest tossed a glass of water at him. He grabbed spaghetti off a plate and threw it at the water-thrower. Soon, several of the guests joined the food fight.
I went to the mens room then left. Appalling.

(4,637 posts)But I am a cook who was getting my ass kicked. We were stupid busy and, out of sheer frustration and inability to leave my hotter than hell station, I threw a mistake in a styrofoam box in the direction of the trash can. It hit the wall and exploded. I felt better.

(1,495 posts)out of wedlock for the 3rd time (by 3 different men). That was 29 years ago now! But other than that that, I haven't seen any adults throwing food in anger. None of my 3 now adult kids threw food in anger, even when they were young.

(118,829 posts)it. My older sister came along and started dipping clean fingers into my batter one by one and then putting each finger in her mouth and licking it off. I told her to stop. She did not. When she got to about her 6th finger I picked up the bowl and turned it upside down on her head.
There may also have been a food fight involving watermelon being thrown out the front door when I was in my late teens.
That is it.

(25,589 posts)He was inviting this guy over for dinner and didn't ask me first. I was pissed.
Here I was making spaghetti and he says, "Richard is coming over"...
Hubby kept bringing Richard over unannounced. Richard was smarmy.
I had told him that he needed to ask or let me know ahead of time.
After that, he cut his ties with Richard.
