*i am aware that this is very europe-centric discussion and this is an entirely different continent

#all the care guide says is 'biomass' #legit ive never HEARD of this before #you cannot go into someones house here for 5 minutes without being offered food and drink #it doesnt even matter if theyre a plumber or someone you hired either #you offer them something to eat and drink #its actually always irritated me all my life #just because i have Food Issues and being repeatedly offered after i said no #can come off as inconsiderate and rude #but like. i dont mind the initial offering. #like fuckin #heres the thing about ''southern hospitality'': it doesnt even mean we like you #but you still have to be treated nicely and as a guest #we'll just shittalk you after you've left #and it is white as hell around here #you just dont bring people into your house if you arent gonna feed them #and if you cant then you apologize and say why and offer to make it up to them later #im just. #even the famine explanation doesnt make sense because #in my experience people who have recently been through tragedy get MORE insistent on feeding everyone #as just a way of trying to help each other and make sure EVERYONE eats #absolutely fucking baffled
