He eats at least 3 servings at a time. He will pick all of the meat out of
a dish and leave none for anyone else. I can't afford that! I do serve
meat but I simply have to serve meatless meals sometimes. I can't afford to
serve him a pound or more of meat for every meal and that's what he would
want. He also has medical reasons for not eating a lot of meat.
