Though they don't keep kosher...

I was waiting for the shift into third person and you did not disappoint me. Someone might start out by saying something like "you were raised better than that" but eventually it stops being you and becomes him. "Look at him, you'd think he was raised by savages!" I can't think of a thing you left out of the formula: a shameful waste; what will the naaaaybors think?; we're failures as parents (implicit in "we raised you better"). it's not one of those tiny things you can disapprove of with an annoying little joke but I suppose it's too small an issue to say something like, "it's not as if I don't mind but you're and adult and I have no right to interfere; but you know dear, you're breaking Daddy's (Momma's) heart", or "I'm only glad Nana didn't live long enough to see things come to this!"

" Yes, it's the well known "bubbe commandment" - thou shalt not waste thy money! "Oh, Joseph, you spend your money on such filthy food, and then you spit it out? Is that how we raised you? Such a mess you made for the neighbors to look at, and with your father's hard earned money. OK, so it's your money. Look at our big engineer, can design a computer chip but can't figure out how to keep his food down. Is that any example to set for little Moshe? Look at him, he's starting to spit up already, trying to be just like his big cousin. I hope you're proud already"... Honestly, the stoning at the city gate comes almost as blessed relief.

Is the prohibition on pork passing your lips... or on its consumption? I mean, is there a difference according to law between swallowing and spitting?

Whatever happens (or does not), if Mrs. B calls Mr. B "You pig!" it won't be the first time a woman has addressed her man that way.

There was an obit. in today's paper for a woman named Bacon. It said nothing about arrangements but it got me to wondering....
