It really depends on how well you know the person. e.g If my husband did it I wouldnt mind but if someone else I was having dinner with did it I would stick a fork in them hahahhaha

I agree. And it is also utter rudeness to go to a restaurant and ask if they want to share a plate with you. Ewwwww. Why do I want to pick at food shared with others? I always ask for my own salsa container also. People drop chunks of chips in it and I am supposed to slop it up. Leave my plate alone people!

It's extremily rude!
The least they can do is ask you if it's okay first.
If anyone does that again just TELL them that it's really RUDE and not to do it again.
Slap their hand away too, if you have to, and tell them you won't tolerate that kind of behavior again.
A good friend will understand, a bad friend won't.
Why put up with that kind of behavior?

I get so annoyed....my friends always do it....it's not about the food, I always offer them things or even if they asked 'can I have a chip?' or something I wouldn't care......it's just when they take it without asking, it's so rude

I hate it I think it's extremely digusting. Once someone do that, I stop enjoying my food as before and I lose my apetite. I also hate it when they just go and drink from my drink or water bottle.

I hate that too.
I especially don't like it when they transfer food that they don't want to eat from their plate to yours. Food that you don't want to eat and want to get rid of is called "garbage".
PS, Have I seen you somewhere before? You like familiar.

Is it always the same person? If so, always order the same thing they do.
Dogsee: your situation is different. You, your family, and your friends have given one another standing permission to sample one other's food. Banjaxed hasn't done that.
