My male cat buries his leftovers too. But he will also bury something he doesn't like before he eats and happily bury his sisters food whether she's finished or not (he will also bury messes on the floor he doesn't like like crumbs or something spilled). I don't think it's a sign of bullying unless there are other behaviour issues as well.
