As we all know, sharing is an act of generosity of a person. And believe it or not, many friendships are formed because of sharing food. How much more when you share your meals with your roommates? This gives an opportunity to build a rapport between you and your roommates. Even if you are sharing a room in a condo in Cebu, Alabang, BGC, Davao or any other condos in the Philippines, you can definitely achieve a good bond with your roommate.
Although a lot of us here would agree that food is essential for our daily consumption. However, it would not hurt you and your wallet if you share your meals with your roommates. Who knows, they might do the same to you. Well, if you are a kind of person who is not used to sharing their foods, then you might want to know why sharing of foods can also be to your advantage.
And mind you, you will definitely enjoy sharing your foods with them.
1. Communicate regularly
Whether you realize it or not, sharing of foods can help you communicate with your roommates.

Moreover, this can also be a chance to share his or her experiences in life, which you can learn from them too.
2. Cook together

Moreover, this is also the chance for the both of you to know each style of cooking. Perhaps, you both have your own recipe to share.
With that, you are not just cooking your favorite food or dish, but you also give your roommate a chance to learn a new recipe.
3. Split with the expenses
There will always be times when you and your roommate decide to do some groceries for your daily food consumptions. With this, you are not just sharing the foods, but you are also saving money by splitting the food expenses with your roommates.
