CuItures and traditions. Eating habits.
In each culture there are both acceptable and unacceptable foods. For example, alligators exist in many parts of the world, but they are unacceptable as food by many persons. Likewise, horses, turtles, and dogs are eaten (and even considered a delicacy) in some cultures, though they are unacceptable food sources in other cultures. Each nationality has the traditions and Eating habits.
Pubs are popular places in Britain. If you have been invited to the pub then your friend will buy your first drink. The British are happy to have a business lunch and discuss business matters with a drink during the meal. The Japanese prefer not to work while eating: lunch is a time to relax and get to know one another, and they rarely drink at lunchtime. The Germans like to talk business before dinner. The French like to eat first and talk afterwards.
Eating seems to be the most popular pastime in Hong Kong. Actually more than 1.5 million people eat out every day in Hong Kong.
In the East or the Middle East you must never use left hand for greeting, eating, drinking, giving presents as it is considered 'impure'.
In conformity with ancient and still very strong religious traditions and beliefs, Hindus won't touch beef, Moslems feel the same about pork. Vegeterians eat neither meat, fish, nor eggs.
