For fun... who gets the cheesecake?

[Calee]

My children would never even know this cheesecake existed....

I voted for your son so you could all eat something together.

 

[PrincessShmoo]

I say I should get the cheesecake because it was my order that got messed up.

That's my vote.

 

[PerfessorZ]

You never said it who paid for the meal? If that's someone other than you, I might change my vote.

Based on (my assumption) that you paid, AND that it was your order that got screwed up, you are 100% in the clear on eating that slice of cheesecake... from a fast... food.. joint.

I would expect my spouse to split it with me

I would expect my spouse to split it with me

I would expect my spouse to lose a hand if he tried.

If it were me, I’d let DS and DD split it. Or I would’ve bought an extra piece so each child could have one.

IMO, you and your wife are adults; you should let the kids have the bonus treat. Plus, isn’t a cheesecake flavored shake AND a slice of cheesecake a bit much?!

Bingo! I read through the first post twice. I know splitting 4 ways isn't a "choice", but I can't figure out why?
I'd give everyone a fork and we'd all enjoy a few bites. The cheesecake was an error, but nice that you got to keep it for free.

Because it's the easy way out.

 

[gwynne]

Because it's the easy way out.

Never thought about it that way. I see grabbing 4 forks and sharing as kind of fun, and nice. But, what do I know?

 

[Sleepy425]

I voted "me." Because I'm assuming you were the one who ordered and paid. And if that was me, that means I would have hidden the extra cheesecake from the rest of the family and eaten it in the bathroom all alone when I got home.
I'm not going for a mom of the year award here. When it comes to cheesecake, it's every family member for themselves.

 

[buzzrelly]

I couldn't vote because I wouldn't choose any of those. I would share. It's the only fair thing and nobody really wanted it anyway or they would have ordered it for themselves.

 

[Wendy31]

Your wife, of course!

Because she's right - you & your daughter both have milkshakes as "dessert".

Plus, she's your wife. She needs a special treat.

However, I can see the case for your son to get it as well... When you get home w/ the food, everyone will be eating something except him (since he had a TV dinner earlier), so I *might* could see offering it to him so that he could join y'all eating.

Never said it wasn't fun or nice. I just said it was the easy way out.

For those of you wondering, DW paid.

 

[indimom]

I gave it to your son... so you would all have a treat. I'm sure by the time you got home he was hungry again...

 

[Cannot_Wait_4Disney]

I would force my family to watch while <<I>> ate it. They can lick any crumbs off the dish if they want.

No way. Lick the crumbs off in front of them too.

 

[Diznygrl]

I would say the son because he had a crappy tv dinner while everyone else got fast food, LOL. I don't know the full situation but I've been in such situations where I will eat some lousy thing at home and then RIGHT after I get a call from someone saying, "Hey, we're at such and such restaurant. Want me to bring you something?" Grrr!

 

[kimblebee]

It was given to you because of your order. You should have right to first refusal.

 

[emer95]

All I can think about right now is cheesecake. I can’t even make a determination as to who should have gotten it, other than me. I should get it.

 

[disneychrista]

It's MY cheesecake if I got it based on my order...
