Now wait a minute...he may be trying to help here. If he doesn't understand the process of digestion, he may be helping you get through your liquid stage by chewing, swallowing the liquid, and spitting the solid. I can TOTALLY see why he would think that may help you.
Let's not move to the assumption that he's trying to sabotage you. He may be unsure and feeling completely helpless that he can't "fix" your pain (which, right now is NOT eating). Our hubbys need to feel they can take care of us (darn that testosterone), and when they can't, they get a little creative in their means to do so.
I think it's a sweet gesture. I wouldn't be upset with him at all. If he were truly trying to sabotage you, he'd say "big whoop...eat the damn steak and quit whining about being hungry"
Just my 2 cents.
