Chumlet Food that you started to eat the night before in bed and did not finish. The food is then placed on the floor by the bed. In the morning when getting out of bed you put your feet on the floor and inevitably tread in the food. Chumlet is the word that encompasses every possible food known to man, therefore eliminating any embarrassment as it removes the need to specifically divulge exactly what was being eaten in bed. This is something most of us have done or will do at some point in our lives, the term also avoids such acts as food shaming and ridicule.

Backstory: The word Chumlet is a derivative of Crumpet, which is a main food of choice to eaten in bed by the British. However it is a collaboration with our fellow Americans. The British person in question trod upon the Crumpet he had left on the floor the previous night and had the thoughts that “he must remember that it is there or else will probably tread in it.” He shared the tale of woe with me but omitted the food he had trodden in and made me guess. I could not. Later, emailing my American boyfriend I thought I'd play a quick and not quite correct game of hangman with him. The clue was - "what did my friend tread in this morning? I gave him the letters C_ _M_ _T His guess was CHUMLET. We laughed at him for making up English words, but then decided in fact we do need a term for something that we almost all have done at some point in our lives, avoiding food shaming and ridicule.
