Sure, true love can move mountains, but it doesn’t extend to sharing food. That’s what one woman realized when her husband-to-be went to extreme measures to stop her from eating his delicious snacks.
Stacey Lowe became a sensation online after she posted a rant about when her husband-to-be and father of her child Dave installed a safe in the family fridge to keep her from munching on his snacks. I fully understand hiding a few chocolate bars underneath the bed so that your loved one doesn’t take them, but a safe with a combination might be going a bit overboard.
One guy installed a fridge safe to protect his snacks…

…but his girlfriend didn’t like that one bit!

Stacey’s post on Facebook went viral, getting more than 52,000 likes at the time this article was written. It also got more than 113,000 comments and over 59,000 shares. This is most likely the first time I’ve seen a popular post have more comments than it does likes.

Most of us love snacking (I know I do), but it might not be the most healthy thing to do. According to Healthline, it’s best to eat snacks that are around 200 calories and have at least 10 grams of protein in them, in order for you to stay full until your next serious meal. Active people should eat around two to three snacks a day, but people who spend their entire day sitting down should go for up to just one.
The snacks that you and I should avoid are processed, high-sugar treats that will make you feel even hungrier a couple of hours down the line. Snacks like eggs and cottage cheese keep you full for hours on end, so they’re a safe bet. Just be sure to eat your cottage cheese, instead of leaving it in the fridge for 7 years.
Dear Pandas, what do you think about this Battle of the Snacks? Do you support Dave or do you think that couples should share all their snacks? What’s your favorite snack that you’d consider getting a safe for? I can’t wait to hear your thoughts about this incredible situation, so write a comment down below.

Internet users had a lot of fun reacting to what happened
She should stop stealing his snacks! My husband does the same with my chocolate. I eat very little, just a few pieces a week, but when I finally have a craving, the bowl is often almost (or completely) empty! Annoying as f**k. After years I finally got it through his thick skull that I'm fine with him (ch)eating whatever he wants, but if he eats my chocolate, he should refill it. If I had known about these safes, I would have gotten one years ago :)
If someone didn't want to share chocolates with me there is no basis for a relationship.
Load More Replies...It's just a symbolic lock, you pull the lid up a bit to keep it under pressure then roll the first number: You'll feel one number there being different and the lid going up a fraction... found first digit. Now the same for the next. And the third after that. First time, 40--50sec; after a few goes with various: 10--15sec. SO: Never buy a combination lock for a bike.
Every lock is unsafe. Purpose of lock is to make the effort of stealing the thing it is protecting harder than not doing. So if value is low a 3 digits lock is ok. It is not ok to protect something valuable...
Load More Replies...Wow, filter much the pic with the pregnancy test? She looks like a teenager- then scroll down and she looks like a totally different person.
I'm assuming it's a joke... if not I think there is some concern that A he is locking up his food or has to lock up his food and B that she feels like need to publicly shame and name call.
Poor guy, I'm sure he wouldn't have installed it if there wasn't a good reason!!!!!!
If he's been coming home to find no chocolate in the house...I don't blame him. She's big now, she can get her own chocolate. /sarc
Solve the lock, take his chocolate, put empty wrappers back in fridge in re-locked safe.
Putting double deckers in the fridge is a bad idea, if you like your teeth.
i can see if you had kids, this is how you save some stuff for parents.
I think that's grounds for divorce. And I'd like to add that my husband bought me a Twix the other day and put it in my purse because he knew I'd forget to take it to work the next day. THAT'S LOVE.
I have to hide snacks from my wife and kid or they disappear before I am ready for the next one...don't blame him one bit.
Stupid idea. Me too I love chocolate. Lucky me there are still supermarkets 🍀💡🍫

Put it in the sun, no one said the safe had to stay in the fridge 😉
Stop stealing his share of the snacks and you wouldn't have that problem. I need one of those too because I buy me and my brother our own snacks and he'll eat all of his and then think he's entitled to half of mine too.
They bought a house together and have a child together. If this is the type of pettiness that causes issues (him locking up his snacks, her publicly shaming him), there are much bigger problems. Communication/compromise is key to any [future] marriage. Assuming it's actually a true story, neither is occurring.
Load More Replies...Very familiar... My brother-in-law and my nephews (Antigua and barbuda people) are like that, my sister is increasingly like them. Not so in Turkey. We not only share with our family, we even share our food with people we don't know. And we're really happy about it and finding peace. (p.s. This is not a religious propaganda! I am not muslim. I am agnostic and my family is not very faithful people, secular people.)
She has a normal figure, and he's a bit overweight apparently. And *he* dares to do that? If my bf did that we'd have a very big fight for this is wrong at the core.
