Don’t Do These At The Dinner Table

Source: https://travelerstabledotblog.files.wordpress.com

When invited over for dinner at a Dane’s home, don’t start eating until the host makes a toast and says “Skål.” This is the only time you can begin and make sure that you try everything that the host offers as they have exerted a lot of effort to prepare the food. Although it is not considered rude to refuse second helpings, which are always offered, make sure that you don’t leave any food on your plate when you’re done as the Danes do not like wasting food. Finally, when you’re finished, place your knife and fork across your plate with the tines facing up and the handles turned to the right, and don’t forget to offer to help in cleaning up.
