AITA for asking that my ice cream be replaced with the same thing if someone else eats it?

Everyone has that one little indulgence that makes them happy. For me, it’s a pint of Häagen-Dazs in my favorite flavor—nothing more, nothing less. I don’t buy chips, cookies, or candy; just that one ice cream, now and then. But lately, every time I go to grab it, I find the pint empty and my husband or stepson shrugging it off. What started as a small annoyance has turned into a full-blown argument about respect, boundaries, and whether or not I’m being unreasonable for asking that my one snack be left alone—or at the very least, replaced.

AITA for Demanding My Pint Back?

Let’s hear the community’s take on this wild story.

At the end of the day, it’s not just about ice cream—it’s about consideration. I’m not hoarding food or demanding something extravagant. I just want the one thing I enjoy to actually be there when I go looking for it. If my husband and stepson want to eat it, fine, but replacing it shouldn’t be too much to ask. So now I’m left questioning: am I being petty over something so small, or is it fair to expect my family to respect this simple boundary?
