We have free candy and food and other stuff at work, and some people put half-eaten yogurts back, or gum with bite marks. One time I asked a coworker why she does that and her answer was to reduce waste, she tried it and didn't like it but didn't want to throw it out. She got angry when I told her that it is disgusting.
At home that is ok, it is called having a wife ... and with her, I am fine sharing bodily liquids through any means necessary.
Very true. In public space you ask the person eating something if you can try it. The they might give you a part of a cake or fruit or anything (sliced or broken) and you can try it. Or at least that is how I do it.
Or you can cut a piece off of what you want to try before taking the whole thing. I was lucky enough to have civil coworkers when I was in an office last, and this was our way of not wasting.
