Rhonda attacked the food like she hadn't eaten in days, grabbing only the meat and fish for herself. Mrs. Green shot her several disapproving looks, but it was useless. Rhonda pretended not to notice, just kept eating and piling food onto her son's and husband's plates. There wasn't much to the pound of fish and meat to begin with, and after she'd had her way with it, almost nothing was left.
Mrs. Green was about to lose her temper, but Rosalind stopped her. She wasn't craving the meat and fish herself. 'It's our first time meeting, I don't want to start a fight with my sister-in-law.' In the end, it was all because resources were so scarce. She couldn't really blame Rhonda.
