Where do knives and forks go in relation to the plate? Which hand do you eat with? How do eating customs in different countries differ from each other?
The Italian I lived with for 25 years in Rome always ate spaghetti with a spoon to roll it up in. But many Italians roll up it up in the bowl and then kind of shovel in their mouths. Fortunately most restaurants have a special spray or talcom powder to treat oil spots on ties or blouses!
Thank you for your explanation, Janice. Since I don't have a spray or talcom powder handy, I think I will continue using a spoon when eating spaghetti!
