I have a deeply ingrained resistance to throwing food away thanks to a similarly illogical childhood admonition. I still can't figure out how me stuffing my face makes starvation in China better.

I have the same acquired aversion to not finishing my food, and to wasting anything. Though I don't think the Chinese children are thanking me for it.
But I don't see not finishing a book as waste. The waste would be spending time on it if I'm not enjoying it.
