he'll only eat the idli if he's holding a spare one in the other hand

one idli in the right hand, being eaten. one in the left, not to be touched by anyone. if i take the spare away he stops eating the first. he's not even one yet and he already has a backup plan

    Mine did this with dosa pieces. One to eat, one to guard. Years later he still takes two chapatis at a time ❤️

      My daughter's preschool teacher says half the class does exactly this at snack time. The spare is almost never eaten. It just has to exist.

      "it just has to exist" is exactly it. last night's spare went in the bin untouched and very squished
