For those of you still awake and at home on a Friday night.

You have left your pudding in the fridge.

Your pudding has been in the fridge for at least two days now. Much longer and your pudding will just have to go in the bin.

If someone, taking into account the fact that it has been in the fridge for two days, eats your pudding. Are they:

1. Utterly entitled to eat that which you obviously don't want, and will otherwise go to waste
2. A thief and a scoundral that deserves to be hanged.

Depends - were they intending and able to eat the pudding in the alloted time?

If so, b. If not, a. all the way!

the pudding
that was in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast

Forgive me
It was that or a kebab

Possession is nine-tenths of the pie.

Other people's dessert contains no calories.

Based on these truisms, the logical course of action is self-evident.

If it's MY pudding and YOU want to eat it then 2. If it's YOUR pudding and I want to eat it then 1. Obviously.

It depends on what the act is discovered. Should it be after the pudding had of gone off, then it was a kind act saving the person the guilt that it would have been wasted. Otherwise its posibly a case of replacing the pudding with another.
