<p>I think "I don't want to share food" is a given. I don't touch my roommate's food, and neither does he.</p>
<p>What's fuzzy however is whether you want to share silverware, dishes, cookware, and such.</p>
<p>Oh I forgot about the veggie steam bag things. I love those!</p>
<p>I haven't had a problem with my roommate eating my stuff. As far as silverware and plates and that crap goes, we just got disposable and split the cost. It's pretty easy to work out.</p>
<p>i wouldn't mind sharing dishes and stuff as long as she washes them after. i just don't want to spend lots of $$ on food and then have my roomate eat it all. But accepting replacements/money is a good idea, too. I have a sensitive peanut allergy so the meal pplan is not the best idea, since i cna't read the ingredients on stuff from the caf when there's 1000 people in line behind me. so basically, what's in my fridge is what i will have to eat.</p>
<p>Trader Joe's! They have amazing microwaveable noodle boxes that I take to school for lunch like every day. Not even exaggerating.</p>
<p>thank you guys so much for all the help <3</p>

Just make sure you dont touch their stuff and hope they get the hint. if they do, just tell them not to eat it, I would find them eating MY STUFF that i paid with my own money without permission extremely rude anyhow. :/ I never touched my roommate's stuff and when she did sometimes eat my stuff, she would replace it (and eat it again.. sometimes =_=)</p>
