Yep, same reason. You always make like A LOT extra... in case he/she wants some more... in reality, you become a cold meal expert when you're a parrent.

I got chickens. It's great because I couldn't throw food away, they are happy to complement their diet with whatever the babies drop or don't eat, and I feel good as it keeps the chooks happy and it contributes to making eggs! Win win.

Yeah, I live in a building though... and have parrots. It's not like I could give that to the parrots, they're fairly small.

But a neighbour has a dog and I try to give him leftovers from time to time. I really don't like throwing food away or letting it rot. I am fortunate enough that I can afford that meal, not everyone is as lucky as me.
