I think that the only calories I overeat are when I taste the food I cook. But I can't cook without tasting since I never follow recipes.
This is how I see it too. I also was taught not to eat off of other people's plates so it's rare for me to do that.
I think having worked in food service, I see cooking food for others when I won't be eating as a job. Ditto cleaning up after someone else eats. It's just doesn't enter my mind to be tempted by it.
