Table manners are how to behave when you eat a meal. Different countries have different table manners. Now let’s see how to eat in public in the following countries. Japan

It is okay to make some noises when you eat noodles in Japan. Unlike making big noises, making some noises is not rude but is a compliment to the chef. The Japanese also say it tastes better if you make some noises.

What else to watch: It’s important to say “thanks” before and after a meal.

France

In France, a meal is like a ceremony (典礼). People enjoy it and make it a special event. You should never discuss money or religion (宗教信仰) over dinner, and going Dutch (各自付账) is not very polite.

What else to watch: You need to finish everything on your plate.

Mexico

In Mexico, whenever you catch the eye of someone who’s eating, even a stranger, it’s good manners to say “provecho”, which means “enjoy”.

Although I was never a thin girl, I was always fit because I played basketball from the 5th grade right through college. But after graduation, I got married and gave up playing basketball. Then I started eating too much. In 10 years, my weight increased from 175 to 245 pounds. What was even worse, my son picked up a bad eating habit. As a four-year-old boy, he liked having French fries because he often saw me put those things into my mouth.

I read an article in my husband’s health magazine. It said that being too fat can shorten a person’s life by five to ten years. That was scary. I didn’t want to leave my son because of my poor eating habits. After that, every time I wanted to have French fries. I would think that I could be here a little bit longer if I just ate better.

One of my friends told me that an organization was offering a free course to help people lose weight, so I decided to join it. The teacher gave each type of food a certain number of calories, and how many calories we needed to eat a day. After I came home from the first class, I calculated (计算) the calories of food in my meal. If I wanted, I could have pizza every night. But when I learned that one piece had a lot of calories, I decided not to eat as many pieces as I wanted.

Finally, I succeeded in losing 50 pounds. In February, 2012, I was on the cover of a health magazine. And my husband always told other people that I looked better than ever.
