Since Daniel did such a good job of answering the first part of your question, I'll take the last part. :) >> Also what about sharing food or drinks (I have a partner). Bardon absolutely advises against leaving anything unconsumed that has been charged. How does this apply to other people eating your charged comestibles? << Part of building the intention here is that you treat the food that you've charged as special. This means that no one else should consume it while it is charged. If you have left-overs, then remove what charge remains in them before disposing of them or sharing them with others. If your partner regularly eats a portion of your food, then set aside this portion and don't charge it. Charge only the portion that you will be consuming.
