Abstract
Abstract: This article explores research that relates practices of interpersonal food behaviours to attachment style. The focus is on food sharing and food offering, across different affec-tional bonds, from family to friends to romance, and how this is affected by attachment styles and behaviours. Although food sharing tends to bring us joy, it can hurt too, as research using the hot sauce paradigm tells us. The research findings are interwoven with anecdotes from the author’s own Greek Cypriot heritage, where food sharing is synonymous with the cuisine; in many ways this piece could be considered a love letter to meze.
