Why this one divides people
Guilt in a shopping basket is rarely about nutrition; it is about the story you tell yourself at the checkout. Large sharing bags get named most often, because everyone knows perfectly well the bag will not be shared. Small impulse items by the till attract a different sort of shame, since nobody plans them and everybody remembers grabbing one. Premium treats split the room: some people feel worse about the price than the contents, while others think paying more makes it a considered choice rather than a slip. Convenience meals get defended fiercely by anyone who has worked a long week.

In the game itself you always see a split, because a seeded baseline stands in until recorded answers outweigh it. That estimate is ours, so it is never published here as crowd data.
