The Strangest Eating Habits from Around the World! Tue' /ar 0120 3 4ublished in Health 5 lifestyle
6hen your eating a dish with cooked rice in Thailand' only use your work to shove your rice onto your s%oon. 6ith some dishes' such as sticky rice' it is allowed to use your hands. "ut asking for cho%sticks is %lain rude. 7o not eat taco-s with knife and fork in /e$ico. Afraid your beans and salsa will be all over the %lace8 *et over it' because /e$icans think eating taco-s with knife and fork is stu%id and snobbish 9 like using your best silverwork eating #rench fries. 7o not ask for %armesan cheese on your %i&&a in Italy. Italians think that is “not done!' and %armesan is not the standard cheese everywhere: in roman dishes for e$am%le' they rather us %ecorino. 6hen your offered a drink in Korea by and elderly %erson' you reach to your glas or cu% with both hands going u%wards. 6hen it is %oured' you look away to discretely take your first si%. 7o not start eating before the oldest %erson at the table.
6hen you %ause during eating in ;a%an' %lace your cho%sticks at your right' %arallel with the table border. The worst thing you can do is %lacing your cho%sticks u%right in your rice: this gesture has a symbolic meaning and is held for funerals.
hina and Hong Kong' they believe that it is bad luck to turn your fish around. Instead' take the bones of and then eat the bottom half. In >hili they are stricter about eating habits than in other outh American countries. 7on-t eat anything with your hands' not even small a%%eti&ers. 6hen you are invited to a traditional dinner in *eorgia' remember that it is rude to drink your wine calmly. 7uring such a “su%ra! you can only drink after a toast' and then you have to drink your entire glass in one go. 7on-t mi$ your vodka when your in =ussia: the =ussians drink their favorite drink %ure' unless they mi$ it with beer from ,orsh. 7enying a glass of vodka is seen as rude' because the offer is meant as a sign for friendshi% and trust. ?????????????????????9 As you can see' eating habits vary a lot around the world. It is culturally defined how one sees certain eating habits. In one country eating with your hands is %olite' and in the other it is %lain rude. In some countries they even want you to drink things that are bad for your mind and body such as vodka' or drinking an entire glass in 2 go after a toast. They see it as a sign of friendshi% and trust' and that is sim%ly ridiculous. If you re@uire another to acce%t a drink when they are not thirsty' or a drink that will cause them to be drunk' for them to give a sign to you that they are your friend and can be trusted8 =idiculous.
6e should all let go of our udgments regards eating habits. et %eo%le eat the way they want' and sto% udging on every fucking little thing there is. It is like we want to udge everythingB from %eo%le-s shoes and clothing' to the way they do their hair' to our eating habits. It really does not matter how someone eats. I will
refuse any alcoholic drink offered to me' because I do not drink alcohol. I also refuse drinks when I do not want to drink. If this offends anyone' they need to get some hel% or hel% themselves get over it. /y grand%arents often do not like it when I do not want to drink coffee with them or eat %ie with them. They rather want me to drink things that I find horrible tasting' and eat shit that is bad for my body' all in the sake of being “sociable! and “co&y!. It is like they are saying: “eat this sugar and fat loaded cra% that is bad for your body' and drink this coffee that makes you %uke' so that we can feel “co&y! and better.! CuhB no thanks. I also eat with my fork in my right hand' and rarely use a knife. That is comfortable for me. o if you like to eat in a s%ecific way' for e$am%le with a s%oon' a knife and fork' or your handsB then do so. And do not udge others for not eating the way you are eating. It really is irrelevant. And if we want a better world' we will have to start investigating the cultural rules that create se%aration between us' even when it are such “small! things. Time to use our brains. If you notice a reaction coming u% towards a certain eating habit' find out why. And reali&e someone from another country may be e@ually as udgmental towards you. 7o we want such a world8 I don-t. et-s learn to treat each others as C@ual living beings' not determined by cultural rules.

A KULTURÁLT ÉTKEZÉS FELTÉTELEI, FONTOSSÁGA How to eat in public Table manners are how to behave when you eat a meal. They include how to handle cutlery and how to eat in a civili&ed manner. The world-s largest travel and digital %ublisher' onely 4lanet has assembled eti@uette ti%s. It warns of blunders you should avoid at table.
“It celebrates the fun of travel. ometimes they are funny and sometimes they are informative'! said editor =obert =eid' whose team %ulled together tidbits from various crosscultural books.
Cating 4apan onely 4lanet: It is “%erfectly! okay to slur% when you eat noodles. Tradition: nlike making big noises' slur%ing mildly is not rude but is a com%liment to the chef. ;a%anese also say it tastes better if you slur%. 6hat else to watch: It-s im%ortant to say traditional %hrases of thanks before and after a meal. Cat sushi whole. 7i% the fish %art rather than the rice into soy sauce.
Russia onely 4lanet: ,our wrists should be %laced on the edge of the table while eating' fork in left hand' knife in the right. Tradition: Kee% your hands in sight. It is not good manners to rest them on your la%. Kee% your elbows off the table. 6hat else to watch: eave some food on your %late to show that the host has given you enough to eat. Fr the host will ask if you-d like to have a second hel%ing. It-s %olite to mo% u% e$cess sauce or gravy with bread.
0ortugal onely 4lanet: don-t ask for salt and %e%%er if it is not on the table. “Asking for any kind of seasoning or condiment! will offend the cook. Tradition: >ooks are highly res%ected in 4ortugal. 6hat else to watch: 4lace your na%kin on your la%' and don-t eat with your fingers. 7on-t switch cutlery between hands.
Franc& onely 4lanet: never discuss money or religion over dinner. *oing 7utch is considered “the height of unso%histication!. Tradition: In #rance' a meal is like a ceremony. 4eo%le relish it and make it-s a s%ecial occasion. 6hat else to watch: In contrast to the eti@uette in =ussia' it-s considered good manners to finish everything on your %late. 4eo%le often cut bread directly on a table cloth rather than on a %late. Tear your bread into bitesi&ed %ieces before eating. Taking a bite from the whole %iece is very im%olite.
&5ico onely 4lanet: 6henever you catch the eye of someone who-s eating' even a stranger' it-s good manners to say “%rovecho!' which means enoy. Tradition: In /e$ico' dining is more than a meal. It-s a social occasion lunches are rarely @uick and su%%ers can last for hours. 6hat else to watch: 6here you sit matters in the country. "efore you get seated' look for %lace cards' or wait until the host seats you. And you must say “enoy your meal! before you leave the table. 7rinking onely 4lanet has offered hel%ful drinking ti%s.
3m&rica If you em%ty a bottle into someone-s glass' it obliges that %erson to buy the ne$t bottle. It-s %olite to %ut the last dro%s into your own glass.
3ustralia In a %ub it-s customary to buy a round of drinks for everyone in your grou%. 6hen it-s your turn say “It-s my round!. They-ll make it u% to you when it-s their round. 7on-t leave before you-ve bought a round.
4apan 7on-t fill your own glass of alcohol' instead' you should %our for others and wait for them to reci%rocate.
Russia Adhere to the vodka rituals. +odka is for toasting' not si%%ing. /en' but not women' are e$%ected to down shots in one gul%.
S(&+&n It-s considered im%olite to clink glasses unless you say “cheers!.

Etiu&tt& an+ Eating Habits ivili&ed and considerate %eo%le the world over demand that meals shall be eaten with res%ect' not only for the food and the effort and good fortune it re%resents but also for the %eo%le in whose com%any it is eaten. Human beings normally eat in the com%any of others. The word Gcom%anyG is derived from atin' meaning Gbread with'G and therefore Gthose who share food.G The act of sharing a meal becomes a symbol of every kind of relationshi% and of the acce%tance of cultural values that may seem to have little to do with consuming nutrients. ince eating normally ha%%ens more than once a day' human beings turn meals into o%%ortunities to learn and to %ractice Gculture.G 4oliteness at meals %rovides daily e$ercise in making socially desirable norms Gsecond nature.G However' mealtime eti@uette is not morality. It is convention' an agreement to behave' in the %articular circumstances of mealtimes' as if one were virtuous. ike any convention it is liable to degenerate into a facade' which can be used as a barrier to %rotect %ower and class distinction. Taboo Cating rules e$ist mainly to ensure that meals shall be shared %eacefully' the reason being that such an outcome is far from inevitable. 4eo%le have killed' cho%%ed' and submitted to fire what they are eating togetherJ they are often armed with knives and certainly with teeth' %rimary human wea%ons. They are hungry' each looking out for his or her own interests' and they are sitting at close @uarters. They might also be consuming alcohol' which lowers inhibitions. /ealtime rules %rovide not only the safety but also the %redictability that allows eaters to rela$. 7ifferent societies have different ways of kee%ing violence out of the sacred eating s%ace. In Curo%ean and American cultures knives are on the table. Their blades are given rounded ends unless they are e$ce%tionally com%etent Gsteak G knives. =ules insist on no %ointing with knives' forks' or s%oons. 7iners should not im%ale their food on their knives to carry it to their mouths' or hold their knives in their fists (that is' too com%etently and therefore aggressively). They should direct their knives toward their %lates with their forefingers' and they should lay down their knives with blades facing inward' not toward neighbors. Attem%ting to reduce the actual use of the knife' diners' when in doubt and if %ossible' use a fork or a s%oon instead. arving u% a whole oint or a bird in front of the assembled com%any would be' in many societies' an unthinkably barbarous act. The >hinese and ;a%anese' for e$am%le' have banned knives from the table altogether. They cut u% everything in advance' far away and out of sight. The eating im%lements %rovided are blunt wooden sticks.
/ealtime manners usually work by kee%ing any thought of violence from occurring. /any myths' however' reveal the roots of the conventions by including a murder that is es%ecially a%%alling because of its mealtime setting. The drama resides in the horror of that which good behavior while eating so successfully %revents. (An e$am%le is Homers Odyssey 22: 1L9 01.) And because mealtime manners are a mild form of taboo' hearing about infractions' such as %eo%le flinging food about' wi%ing their mouths on the tablecloth' or grabbing food with their hands (es%ecially where knives' forks' and s%oons or cho%sticks are the rule)' causes shock or laughter . 7uring meals all mammals are e$trasensitive to the %ossibility of enemies stealing their food or otherwise taking advantage of their concentration on eating. They are alert to tiny signs and abnormalities in the environment that otherwise they might let %ass. #or human beings' who normally eat in a %reviously %re%ared and %rotected area' this heightened attention is a%%lied to the behavior of their eating com%anions. trange table manners or an affront to a visitors culturally formed e$%ectations are often the subect of dramatic travelers tales. 6esterners' for e$am%le' might note with sur%rise and then find unforgettable the Arab custom of %ouring tea into a glass until it overflows into the saucer beneath it. This is a sign in Arab cultures of magnanimity' but foreigners can misinter%ret it as slo%%y and incom%etent behavior. Fn the continent of Curo%e' %ro%riety enoins diners to sit with both hands in full view of the com%anyJ most correctly' unused hands should rest on the tables edge' being visible only from the wrists. The Angloa$on custom of %ermitting guests to sit with one hand hidden seems' to >ontinentals' at best a sad sign of naivete. ince mealtime eti@uette is drummed into %eo%le so early and so thoroughly' its obedient %ractitioners rarely find it a matter for commentJ they take it for granted. It is outsiders usually who re%ort on the idiosyncrasies of a societys manners at meals. >onsideration for the >om%any Fther themes e$%ressed by systems of mealtime manners worldwide include who dines with whom and when' and the solidarity of the dining grou%J consideration for the needs' fears' and sensitivities of the other %eo%le %resentJ and cleanliness' which may have as much to do with %urity and all its connotations as with health. These themes may be articulated in mealtime rituals that are common to many cultures' or behavior may be highly idiosyncratic yet witness to widely held meanings. /ealtime rules simultaneously e$%ress %references that are culture s%ecific. #or e$am%le' in modern Curo%e and America meals are eaten around a table' which e$%resses the oneness of the grou%. olidarity established' the se%arateness and selfsufficiency of each individual is stressed. The cutlery is laid out like a fence surrounding every G%lace.G Cveryone sits on his or her own u%right chair. 4ortions are divided out before %eo%le begin eating and are served on se%arate dishes. Any crossing of the boundaries re%resented by the enclosed G%laceG is either a transgression (a Gtransgression'G derived from atin' means a Gste%%ing overG) or demonstrates great intimacy between %eo%le allowed to break this rule and transfer GtastesG from one %late to another. In this same culture it used to be thought %olite and benevolent' therefore Ggood manners'G re%eatedly to %ass food to ones com%anions. 4eo%le are e$horted not to lean into someone elses s%aceJ not to reach across the table' let alone across a neighbors %lateJ not to share the cutlery. uch insistence on the boundaries between the diners is different from the eti@uette of %eo%le who eat from a common s%read' taking from it with their hands' often sitting on the ground to do so.
C@uality' Hierarchy' and =eci%rocity 6hen e@uality is the overriding theme of a meal' meat is likely to be %recho%%ed or minced and %erha%s formed into cakes of e@ual si&es' or all the ingredients might be mi$ed in one dish so everybody eats the same thing (6atson' 2LDD). "ut hierarchy fre@uently cuts across commensal e@uality. It matters' for e$am%le' who gets served first. 6here a whole bird' re%resenting the oneness of the grou%' is carved u% before the diners' the %roceeding ensures that differences are e$%ressed. arving' in the 6estern tradition' was once called Gdoing the honors.G The allocation of sitting s%aces at a ban@uet is e$ceedingly im%ortant in many cultures and subect to s%ecific rules. Fften women' who usually have %re%ared the food' are not allowed to oin the men in eating it. 6ritten records of feasts in the Curo%ean %ast fre@uently describe the seating of the guests while not bothering to say what it was they actually ate. Hos%itality' or acce%ting nonfamily members into ones house' has always been thought a difficult or dangerous %roceeding' and for this reason is often the subect of rules and constraints. Hosts have to make guests Gfeel at home'G yet guests must refrain from demanding different food' ordering the hosts children about' or otherwise overste%%ing their essentially %assive role. Hosts are at home' giving' while guests are away' receiving' and these roles are underlined in different ways' for instance' in some of the rules for seating. /eals eaten with friends and ac@uaintances are widely thought of as hel%ing to bind a societys members together' es%ecially in cultures where familial solidarity is strong enough to create the %otential isolation of %eo%le into family grou%s (Frtner' 2LMD). uch meals normally demand a re%etition of the e$ercise at a later date' when the %resent guest will become the host. The imbalance created between hosts and guests demands to be righted and %roduces the highly desirable social virtue of %eaceful reci%rocity (Nvitrauss' 2LLJ 4itt =ivers' 2LMM). Teaching >hildren to "ehave In all cultures children have to be taught mealtime manners' which deliberately com%licate the actions of taking and eating. They learn gradually not to grab' s%lash' or shout at meals. They %ractice giving and receiving in the manner acce%table to the culture' and they find they must ask for rather than demand what they want. >hildren may also become familiar with social hierarchies or elaborate kinshi% %atterns in their rulebound e$%ressions at meals' that is' how and when to kee% @uiet' how to hear and a%%ly admonitions' how to wait and to share (=aum' 2L1J =ead' 2LOLJ =ichards' 2LP0' 2LPL). /ealtimes' with clear needs' swift rewards' and adult e$am%les on view' are %erfect occasions for children to learn to talk. It is understood that little children' if they are allowed to oin the commensal grou%' have not yet learned to Gbehave.G They may be %ermitted to run around' beg for tidbits from adults' and otherwise break the rules. Their eventual admission to adult status at meals is a kind of initiation and a %roof that they now are ca%able of selfcontrol.
%roviding it and %leasure' which should be clearly dramati&ed. 4eo%le are e$%ected to e$%ress their delight verbally or to %rovide %hysical signs of it' like slur%ing their noodles and sighing with satisfaction. >ontentedly bur%ing after the meal may show a kindly abandon to the generosity of the host' who might be hurt if guests remain cool' detached' and a%%arently either unsatisfied or unim%ressed by what has been offered them. In other cultures %eo%le feel they should not be unduly interested in the foodJ they should at least a%%ear to revel mainly in the com%any of the other %eo%le %resent. They refrain from e$claiming about the food' although a %olite murmur of a%%reciation might be %ermitted. They must not look too enthusiastic for fear of seeming greedy. 4eo%le are e$%ected instead to concentrate on the conversation. In some cultures talking during meals may be strictly undesirable. In others only certain %eo%le %resent are allowed to talk' or it may be deemed essential that everybody contribute to the conversation. The eti@uette of eating from a common s%read versus that of eating %reviously a%%ortioned food interlocks with these %references for either talking or kee%ing silent. The system in which each %erson eats from a se%arate %late divides the com%anions' and talk %rovides the needed interchange among them. 4eo%le who take their food from a central dish or set of dishes necessarily interact in the %rocess' so they concentrate on eating with fairness and consideration and tend to talk little. 4eo%le who use cho%sticks eat @uickly because cutu% food' si&&ling hot' could get cold if too much time is taken in chatting rather than eating. Talking for these last two grou%s tends to be done before the meal or afterward. >om%lication 4oliteness' which overlays Gnature'G is usually a com%lication of behavior deemed by other %eo%le to be GfittingG and G%ro%er.G In the modern 6est' for e$am%le' where conversation is a necessary %art of the formal %roceedings at dinner' wellbehaved %eo%le must nevertheless eat with their mouths closed. To eat and talk but never to be seen o%ening your mouth with food in it is far from sim%le. 7ining G%ro%erlyG and remaining rela$ed while doing so (showing uneasiness at mealtimes is always distracting and annoying for the other diners) has to be learned and then honed by constant %ractice.
washing is demanded before and after meals and sometimes during meals as well.
