My Dad and stepmom used to bitch and scream at me if we ever ran out of milk because I drank milk. We were in a family of 8 and one gallon of milk was all we got for the week. Not because we were poor. They just never bought enough. They would spend the same amount of money on food as my mom would for just 3 people. My siblings would make cereal and I’d get yelled at for drinking it all. Same thing with snacks. My stepmom would buy a thing of like cereal bars or something. Maybe 10 in there. So everyone could have about one. They would yell at me as if I ate the whole pack. They would yell if snacks disappeared but they only cooked dinner. So what was I supposed to do for the other two meals other than stuff like ramen and sandwiches? I mean they didn’t make dinner everyday anyways. Sometimes it was because there were leftovers and Those days were fine obviously. But a lot of the time she would just tell us it was a “fend for yourselves” day. So I ended up either eating snacks and stuff on that day and getting yelled at. Or just starving myself. It has led to me having a lot of issues when it comes to eating food. Like I have a bad habit of hoarding food in my room. I’m not very good with sharing my own food. Hell my girlfriends mom still has to tell me I’m allowed to eat their food when I’m over and I still feel guilty for it!
Edit: I should clarify snacks in my household usually included stuff like ramen noodles and mini pizzas and like quick meals. And if I cooked any of the actual food I would get yelled at because that “was for another days dinner”
We should all order pizza to OPs house. It would be like Harry Potter getting his first Hogwarts letter - just inundate that doorstep with pizzas for OP until their proverbial Uncle Vernon shits a brick.

My mom won’t let me eat food or drink water past 4:00 but my sister can so I can kinda relate.
