Yes, but it adds the nuance that the person ate the food without asking for permission, or was rude to someone else by eating the food. (In the story, the person was being rude to Abigail by eating her present.)
A common thing to say to guests is, "You can help yourself to anything in the fridge," which means that the guest can eat whatever they want in the fridge without asking first.
