I think hamsters are 'programmed' to hoard things that do not go off easily since this is the essence of why they hoard- to store food that will keep until the winter.
I have however found that my one little guy, Norman, drags his empty platter down the ramp to his bottom level but he only does this once he's finished all the food.
He's a random little chap.

Ok, thanks. I guess it makes sense that they wouldn't hoard anything too moist.
