What does Genesis 43:34 mean?

Joseph gave them food from his own table, but Benjamin got five times as much as anyone else. They all ate and drank with him, having a good time together. Genesis 43:34 - Modern Text Bible

(Joseph shows special favor to Benjamin, testing his brothers to see if they're jealous. The meal is joyful, but there's still tension under the surface.)
