I should remind him of my needs and wants. I hate doing that though because I feel selfish and mean. So I scrounge instead.

Why does that make you feel selfish and mean? If he's going to pout because you are doing something that he needs, and he has to put what he wants on hold for a little bit, well, let him pout. You had a battle of wills with your daughter over food and you won that... Find some of that stubbornness to get what you want actually change that want to need. You are important, you are more important that scrounging around to get what you want.
