Partly it's all about breaking bread with your enemy and diplomacy through cuisine https://firefish.city/notes/9rmiknh9n105j39m

What's wrong with Anglos and their "lunch meetings?" For me, it's one of the best signs that they don't understand food and the whole act of eating. I won't bring food at a meeting, why on Earth would you want to bring a meeting to a meal? That's just gross and would spoil the meal. (Okay, maybe not all Anglos, but at least the ones from the US and the UK, I hope the other ones have better eating habits) #eating #meetings
