Jeff is on a slippery slope right now because if he gives them more rice without being lost by an act of nature then all upcoming seasons will ask for it too. These players act like they are coming on a show called comfort suites or something I mean come on go look for food.

In Drew's day after interview he did say there are crabs, snails and something else they can eat but listening to him I don't think there are fruit trees. Still & yet these wanna be survivalists are making all who came before them who suffered & laid the blueprints for all who come behind them be for naught.

If it was my deal to make I'd tell them they can have some rice but they have to lose the person that was doing the rice cooking giving to much rice to begin with. So bye bye Missy isn't that her name?

Nobody yet showing they deserve it so to early for me to say who I am rooting for. This is weird usually before now a couple of folks stick out as being worthy.

This is a tough decision, not just for the precedent setting (and you know the attorneys, standards & practices guys, producers and anyone else associated with the show is having a big pow-wow trying to figure out what to do) of giving a tribe more food because they squandered it, but how to not punish the ones who were frugal with their rice. It's hard to figure out. I don't know what I'd do to only punish Missy and her cooking skills, but the ones bargaining for more food. Send Missy to Exile Island by herself for three days??? And how can her former tribemates now still be on her side when she messed things up so badly?

Well they did have full bellies. 1/2 of each couple there was on the well fed side.

I vaguely recall one season, maybe as a reward ?, they brought natives of the location to teach a tribe how to locate edible items or how to catch fish. I can see something like that if the tribe gives something up in exchange.

Sending her to Exile might work she needs to bare the brunt of the punishment since she was warned by Dale & went ahead & cooked a larger amount. Yes the tribe ate it but she seems to be the keeper of the rice right now.

I think that has happened twice but not for sure at any rate all players should have gotten a mini lesson on how to forge for foods on that island. This is really ticking me off the more I think about Jeff giving them new rice.

You know the ones that got put on the other side are 'belly aching' about the smaller portion now.

I hadn't even thought of that but I am sure you are right.
