Do you eat with chopsticks, a fork, or your hands? Table manners are different in every country. Learning about them can be fun and helpful. Let's take a look at some interesting customs!
In Japan, it is polite to slurp(出声地吃) your noodles. 41. But in many Western countries, people think making noise while eating is impolite. They eat quietly.
In China, meals are often shared. Using serving chopsticks to take food from shared plates is a good habit. 42. This is because sticking chopsticks upright in rice reminds people of death. You should also wait for the elders to start eating first. This shows respect.
In India, people usually eat with their right hand. 43. So remember never to use your left hand when sharing food.
In France, there are some rules about where to put your hands. 44. However, you should never put your elbows on the table. You should also finish all the food on your plate. This tells the cook that you enjoyed the meal.
In Thailand, people eat with a fork and a spoon. The spoon is the main tool for eating. 45. The fork is only used to push food onto the spoon, and never put food into the mouth with the fork.
Table manners may be different, but they all have one thing in common: showing respect and kindness to others. When you travel or meet friends from other countries, remember to be open-minded and enjoy learning about their culture!
