Do you or anyone you know take plates full of food home after visiting someone's house?

I was visiting some friends earlier this evening and a former coworker was there with her boyfriend. When they left, they took a plate of food for home. I was reminded, by seeing that, of another group of friends that I have that do the same thing. After visiting, they “fix a plate.” I wonder if that is perhaps how some people survive. I know that most people that I know don’t do that. When my parents have company or when I do, nobody is taking plates of food home. Perhaps if there’s homemade bread or something, the host will offer it, or if there were a lot of chips or something like that left over and the host wants to get rid of it, she will offer, but it’s not plates of food that’s like you have tomorrow night’s supper already laid out.
