Clever Cat Behavior

I witnessed an amusing interaction between two of my cats this morning. 

This is Munchkin:

This is Tiger:

Every time I get a bowl of cereal and pour milk on it, they both show up to hover around me, waiting to claim some milk from the bottom of the bowl.  This morning, as usual, they both had their eyes on the milk.  To prevent a fight, I got two small bowls, divided the milk, and set one in front of each of them.  

Tiger tasted his milk and Munchkin tasted her milk.  Then Munchkin walked over to Tiger's bowl and took a taste of his milk.  Then she walked back to her bowl and finished her milk.  It seemed obvious to me that she wanted to make sure his wasn't better than hers before she went back and finished her own. 

Does anyone else think Munchkin was exhibiting extremely clever cat behavior?
