My 5 year old always wants what’s on my plate…even when it’s the exact same thing on his 🤦🏻‍♀️. Then he’d sort of juggle a bite from each plate, effectively contaminating both. Was fed up with my meal constantly being tainted by booger pickin’ fingers/slobber so started sprinkling pepper on mine. Now I don’t even need to say anything - he steers clear! Simple yet effective. Working for us very well and now my breakfast is my own again :)
