There are many things that come with marriage.

One of them is your partner’s family and their customs. What would you do if you did not like the food that is traditional to your partner’s family? This story looks at that situation.

The user Throwar563577 on Reddit took to the internet after a disagreement with her husband. She began her post by saying that she had been married to her husband for a few months.

They had lived long distance before that and he had only met her family a couple of times.

When the newlyweds were with her family, she would cook them traditional Asian dishes that they really liked.

Her husband did not care for them and would always complain. She says that she offered to make him food he would like.

One day, the woman’s family planned to come over for dinner, so she had prepared their traditional meals.

Something came up at the last minute and her family was no longer able to come, which the wife said was fine.

Since the food was already made, it went into the fridge to eat later.

The woman’s husband was not happy that all that food he did not like was going right back into the fridge.

The husband took out the garbage later, which she said was unusual.

Later she noticed that he had thrown out all of the meals except for one. He claimed that they had a funny smell.

Cook His Own Food

Reddit comment: NTA hold your grudge - Asian myself. That being said your husband sounds prejudiced towards Asian food. If he wants non-Asian food he can use his arms and scrape something together. Ps. You're sure you married an adult?

The two got into an argument and the wife said that she would not be cooking for him again after this.

One person in the comments did not think that she was in the wrong and said that her husband may have some prejudices about Asian food.
