[post_page_title]All about Amish dining etiquette[/post_page_title]
While work, play, and school have brought many American families to rarely eat together, the Amish are a breed apart. Even though they might eat in shifts – adults first, children second – if there’s a huge gathering, Amish mealtime is family time. Still, meals are a little different than what most Americans are used to.
First, many Amish homes don’t use napkins. Instead, there’s a communal dampened rag, but even that rarely gets used. Secondly, rarely does anyone leave the table during the meal and lastly, they don’t use plates so much as something resembling flattened cereal bowls.
