Roommates eating my food

Roommates that eat my food and drink my drank, major annoyance. For starters I’m a guy, meaning, I love to eat, I love food, and like to be able to eat whenever I have a chance. Currently residing with two roommates, both from my fraternity, I now have a mini-fridge in my own bedroom to hide the food I feel are possible suspects to be eaten by the roommates. I developed this list of food through the first four months of experimentation living with them. For instance, jelly is apparently a hot commodity and now must be kept in my room along with bread. Peanut butter interestingly enough, not so popular with the roommates. Dairy products in general seem to be flying off the pantry shelves when kept outside my room and now are kept in the mini-fridge. Kraft singles and milk are definitely high on the list. Recently, orange juice has hit the top five in the list of food and beverage to keep in my room. Most interestingly however, perhaps an annoyance in itself, the roommates do not even attempt to hide their drinking of my orange juice. For example, to finish off one’s gallon of orange juice and leave the empty carton on the kitchen table = BIG hint that someone else drank my orange juice. I guess the “P” my mother always puts on my groceries when she comes to visit didn’t provide a good enough security system for my food.

I never really understood the whole point of putting a first initial on the food. Ask yourself this question: If you are rude enough to eat and drink your roommates stuff, are you going to see their initial and be like, “Whoa, can’t drink that?”
