When you come across your host eating, it is considered polite to wait until the host has started eating before you begin your meal. This etiquette ensures that the host is acknowledged and appreciated, and it allows everyone to begin eating together. Additionally, it is polite to acknowledge the host’s meal with a respectful gesture or a phrase like "Que aproveche" in some cultures, without intruding on their dining. Key points:
- Never start eating before the host begins.
- Acknowledge the host's meal politely.
- Wait for the host to be seated and start eating as a sign of respect and appreciation.
This practice reflects good manners and shows deference to the host's role in providing the meal.
