My dds went to a holiday/activity club for the day today. The club asked us to provide packed lunches and a morning snack. I made the packed lunches and there wasn't any space left in dd2's lunchbox for an extra snack, so I put a little box of ricecakes in dd1's lunchbox and told the girls that they should share the ricecakes for their morning snack.
At the end of the day, the dds told me that the staff at the club didnt allow dd1 to share the ricecakes with dd2, because "sharing food is not allowed".
We're talking about sisters sharing ricecakes here; it's not as if they were giving peanuts to strangers. And I had given the club a form confirming that they don't have any allergies. I know it's not a big deal and they had a lovely day otherwise, but AIBU to think that this rule is a bit over the top or that, at the very least, I should have been told about the rule in advance?
They are 7 and 5 btw.

AIBU?
To think that this is 'health and safety gone mad'?
