Yeah, I've seen a lot of people react like the treats are indignifying, as if positive and negative reinforcement only happen in a lab or something.
Pretty sure it's the lack of consent of the intent that is undignified. Just like many woman prefer to not have their date pay for their meal because it sets the implication that they have to pay via other ways and they didn't consent to this.
Yeah, the single m&m is a little weird but how is it really different than seeing someone in a bag mood and telling them a joke or something to lift their spirits?
