Topic Reading-Vol.3916-12/31/2022

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
What do your table manners say about you?
Do you say anything before eating? Do you put your elbows on the table? How do you use a spoon when you eat soup? Do you make noise when you eat soup or noodles? What is your most accustomed tool to eat, chopsticks, knife & fork, or your right hand? Eating manners and habits significantly vary by culture, occasion, family, and person. Some say table manners show respect for the food, cook, and fellow diners. Others say what matters the most is not how you eat but how you enjoy. After all, mealtime is when people enjoy the food, association, and occasion. You want to enjoy the meal not only for yourself but also with others and that is why there are manners and rules for dining.
Enjoy watching the video and think about what table manners mean to you and in your culture.
