Do you mean that they are sitting there begging / waiting for somethig to fall on the floor? In my opinion, this encourages problems because they are in direct compitition for anything that is "fair game."
I don't believe the crate should be used for punishment, but I also don't care if one of the dogs is sulking. Go sulk, have fun with that. Just ignore the dog completely it will come out eventually.
On most issues I generally say to fix the problem, not avoid it. However, with food, I think it makes more sense to control it by not letting it happen in the first place - especially with two dogs.

We STRICTLY enforce pecking order at my house. the minute we stop Connor marks every place that Ruby sleeps. Ruby keeps the boys in line, but Connor sneaks off and pees all over the place. When we enforce it he doesn't do it.

I was most sure someone would disagree with something I said.

How do you tell which dog is the dog pack leader or the order of the pecking (order)? Can it change in different enviroments?

The dog that the others don't mess with, or who orders around the others. If that dog approaches the others may drop toys or back away. Arguements often happen if one dog gets too big for its britches.
It can change, but I don't think it does very often. It may if the dogs are visiting someone else's house.
