For background, my MIL is a hoarder. My wife doesn't want me to speak up and defend myself, because she still wants to maintain a good relationship so she can still see her father. I want to cut MIL out of our lifes as she makes everything about herself including birthdays. (Now on to the story) My wife, son, and I were at an outing for the 4th of July. I was helping bring the food out for my FiL (a good man) to cook on the grill. Well not all the burgers could fit on the grill, so I was told to set them in the kitchen for later. There was no counter space to be seen. So I sat them on a stool next to the kitchen cause the table was full too. Well I sat them down and later came back in to wash my 1yr old's spoon. I knocked them to the floor and decided to just sat them back since noone was around. I did this for the petty revenge that just happened. My MIL was just making fun of me for not just wiping off his spoon to after it fell to in the dirt where they have dogs, cats, and cows that roam. I knocked the flood to the floor in their dirty house on my way to wash off his spoon that MIL just mocked me for. So that's why I dropped my MIL's food on the ground after she told me to just wipe it off and not wash it off like I did. She picked on me for being clean so I dropped these patties and didn't trash them because I knew her and my SIL that is 30 that also laughed would be the only ones to eat them.
