Abstract
Two people meet in a coffeehouse and decide to share one dessert from a menu of several possible choices. How should they choose which one? A method is presented that is intended to be practical, avoiding the need for long negotiations or complete menu rankings, while offering a high likelihood of satisfaction and fairness to both participants. The method is also extended to parties of 3 or more people sharing one item from a menu of several choices.
