Shall we share and eat?

Hi

When one person offers to share his meal with an elderly gentleman, can he ask -

Shall we share and eat, Sir?

Does this sound anything like a native speaker would say?

Please help.


Thank you

Not to me.

I have some ____ here. Would you like some?

(where the blank names the kind of food you have: pizza, rice, steak, whatever.)
