8 Unspoken Rules of Food Everybody Needs to Follow
Share

There are few things in life I like more than food, and they are my seven cats (I actually do have seven cats), my mom’s cooking and Game of Thrones, but I’m not here to talk about this right now. I want to talk about food, and how goddamn amazing it is.

Food is one of the world’s greatest gifts, and because it is that, we need to love and respect it. How does one do that? I’ve created a list of rules that all humans must follow  in order to lead a food-respecting life.

Eating pizza with a knife and a fork is why terrorism exists, you need to use your hands and only your hands

No matter how absolutely delicious someone’s food looks, let them taste it before you ask for a bite

When taking a bite from someone’s food, make sure to remember that you’re not a T-Rex and to only have a small bite

If you know you’re going to eat from someone else’s fries, just order freakin’ fries

Never eat from someone’s McNuggets because that’s rude AF

The person obviously get four or six pieces so they can just eat them all to themselves. LEAVE THEM THE EFF ALONE!

The rule above also applies to sushi BECAUSE DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH A PIECE OF SUSHI COSTS NOW? EXACTLY!!!

Unless you plan on paying the person 20 LE per piece.

Don’t do strange noises when drinking because NO

And when you’re eating as well because you’re not a cow

Found in a box of bananas from the Philippines on the River Nile at an early age, Kurt is born to a Filipino mother and an Egyptian father which means emotionally he is completely screwed. Kurt is a bubbling cauldron of masculinity aside from his girly hair, camp voice and passion for One Direction.
