I used to have a dog named Brownie and he would lunge at the bowl to grab some food his mouth, then back up while he chewed as if the bowl would bite back.
Ask yourself: Have you been a good role model to Mirri? That is, do you dip your snout into your meal to wholeheartedly enjoy it? Or have you yourself succumbed to the mannerism of using your [looks furtively around, whispers] hands [/whispers] to move food towards your distant mouth?

There was food all over the floor
Also if that doesn’t work then clearly need to see what happens with utensils.
