There's always that one kid who is extremely picky about eating their vegetables, refusing to touch anything green in color, or that has the remotest possibility of being somewhat healthy. This was not helped in our childhood by the sheer amount of media depicting kids refusing to touch vegetables like it was cool.

Still, you would expect that at some point during all those years between eight and thirty, there would be some maturing and growth and that, even if vegetables still aren't your favorite, you might incorporate them into your diet in an effort to lead a healthy life.

Sure, we're all going to have things that we can't stand—I, for one, can't abide Brussels sprouts (without a heavy coating of cheese...) But it's always surprising to encounter a grown-arse adult who flat-out refuses to eat their vegetables at thirty years old. That has got to be one of the most confusing parts of this post, the effectiveness of this strategy to stop not only the roommate's son from eating her food but also his mother, the roommate.

The woman shared her experience of living with her roommate and the roommate's son, detailing a nightmarish living scenario in which the pair consistently would steal and eat her food. The woman noticed, however, that her veggie-containing dishes were always left untouched, leading to a brilliant plan to put an end to the food thievery.
