Old-fashioned table manners used to demand some food was left on the plate. It was to do with signifying that the diner was full. An empty plate meant they were still hungry.0

My understanding: Paul McKenna recommends leaving some food on the plate at the end of a meal (which can be referred to as Paul McKenna). If you leave a second bit of food, you could refer to this as Barry Manilow?
I think I would struggle to put Paul or Barry in the bin. They would end up in a box in the fridge either to be eaten later (defeating the point) or for one very strange meal at the end of the week :rotfl:0 -
