> think about a kid cutting a brownie in half to share - they want to give themselves a bit more, but if you're too greedy and try to take a large fraction of it, mom won't let you and you'll end up losing out.
We take a slightly different approach in my house. The person that divides the treat, gets last pick.
It's very effective at getting the closest to equal distribution possible.
The only time it falls apart is when I'm not particularly worried, so I haphazardly break the cookie in half and end up with 1/4 for myself.
