Like for example: the double dippers. Remember that Seinfeld episode where George was caught double dipping on the dip. That is a major faux pas and a huge pet peeve of mine.
Here are more:
Let's see...
My all time favorite is the guy at the potluck who literally loads half of some dish onto his plate. Before anybody else has had a shot at it. Often it's something like shrimp cocktail.
Not specifically a food issue, but the holiday guest who stands around talking and watching the host clean up 99% of the kitchen before finally asking if they can help.
At potlucks, that one person who's always the first to sign up to bring paper plates or napkins or a 2-litre bottle of soda. Every single time. Without fail. Come to think of it, I think it's usually the person who volunteers to make the sign-up sheet.
The person who shows up at a 50-person potluck with a 2-cup bowl of something (seems like it's usually a rice dish for some reason).
Likewise, the person who brings two medium "pizzas" (I used quotes because they're usually from Pizza Hut) or one bucket of KFC chicken to aforementioned 50-person potluck.
There are many more that will certainly come to mind. I'll post back later...
Or don't be shy send me your stories!
