Kim Seolhyun 7,303 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 My father often gets enraged when people visit his home and eat food/drink their alcohol without bringing anything to share. One time my brother came around and had a few beers of his without bringing anything initially and he was pissed. For years he has always told me to always bring a plate before you take a plate when going to visit somewhere. It doesn’t seem like many other people in my town are too strict about that But I’ll do what he says just because. Anyone else taught this?

WinnerWinnerChickenDinner 1,348 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 No my mom gets pissed when people bring over food without telling first cause no one's home to eat the leftovers If someone invites me over I'll expect the food from them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiatusX 4,135 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Might be culture differences but here if you're invited it's not that weird if you don't bring anything to eat. Some people do bring bouquets or something likewise as a thank you but that isn't expected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronx. 2,763 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 My parents always want me to bring coffee or cookies If I'm visiting someone, especially If it's older person. We don't really expect much to the point that when people visit us for our birthdays, holidays; they don't even bring anything, which is imo really rude, but whatever Not that I'm expecting present or something. I throw a birthday just for my friends and close family friends just show up, literally to eat Nah my parents know I'm a broke bitch Lmao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
black_miri 5,874 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 mmm here if you go in another house bc you've been invited for dinner or lunch, it's common courtesy to bring some foods too or usually dessert or cake. If you go in someone else's home dropping by unannounced, or just for a quick visit then you don't have to bring food. Even if in these informal occasions, you'll be offered food/drinks..

pinkpanda_spirit 14,647 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 when our guests don't bring anything my mother doesn't mind it because well we'll be the one feeding them but when we're invited somewhere my mother always wants to bring something, like a cake or cookies even though the ones who invited us didn't ask for anything. it's just that it makes her feel better to not go empty handed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daria~ 13,886 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Nah. People where I’m from might actually feel insulted if you brought your own food to their home. It might create the impression that theirs isn’t good enough for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indigo 16,433 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 No lol Guest are offered the nice food and we even make sure to offer refreshments and snacks if we have a service person working inn our house. I've also never been to a friends house and had them not offer me food. Of course if you're invited for a full out dinner, offering to bring something is polite but for casual hanging out? It's expected the host provides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 we do feel a little ashamed if we dont bring something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frell 506 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 No. If people are coming to our house for a meal we do all of the cooking ourselves and prepare for it in advance. If they do bring something—great, but we don't ask them to or expect it. If we want you to bring something, you'll know. But we don't usually ask unless there's a lot of people coming (a party basically) and we'd like some help. is it a cultural difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
