what does "reflecting back on it" mean in this context? In Please Like Me Tom: I thought we weren't eating bread. Josh: I was just thinking, maybe it's just OK to eat bread sometimes. Tom: No, I can't! You might be able to eat it just once, but I'm not strong enough in moral character... I mean, you know that scene in Aladdin where Aladdin gives the orphan kid some bread? He shares his bread with him? Josh: Of course. Tom: Well, that scene makes me furious, reflecting back on it!! what does "reflecting back on it" mean in this context? I don't get it why that aladdin scene got him mad... if you could help me understand, i'd really appreciate your help :)

'reflecting back on it' means 'when I think back on it'. In other words - it didn't make him mad then, but now that he thinks about it again, it does. You haven't given enough context to tell why it make him mad. You haven't told us why they don't eat bread- which is most likely related to the reason.
