Read around 2011. It was the end of the world and this family was trying to save any food they could. They had a big bag of chocolate chips for special occasions and one of the kids snuck some chocolate. The mom got mad and made the kid eat the whole bag so they would get sick as a punishment.

This sounds very familiar. There was a scene just like this inSusan Beth Pfeffer’s “Life As We Knew It.�

Quote from Google Books preview of Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer - Michael's find:
"Mom!" I yelled. "It was just some chocolate chips."
"I was saving them for Matt's birthday," she said. "... But you've eaten enough for four people, so you're going to skip your next four meals. Maybe then you'll understand how important food really is."
There are different cover images.
