Recognize food habits of those around you

So, it has been over two years since I lived with my mum for an extended period of time. I did, for eight days last week and observed some things that are not healthy:

1. Obsession with food. She wanted to know what I ate and where I ate it from and how it was. Every meal that I ate outside the house. She was not interested in what part of the city or the people I went with.
2. She kept saying let go, give in, etc while cookies were being passed.
3. She kept handing out food to others, repeatedly offering even if they refused.
4. She said come to the dark side, eat it- for regular food. Sure it was high in calories, but my first portion is NOT me going to the dark side.

I did not realize or notice this earlier than last week. It was so much a part of me growing up. I now realize that these statements could have contributed in associating food with guilt for me.
