Are You A Slob Or A Sophisticate? Take This Test And Find Out
Proper dining etiquette is a tricky thing to navigate. It seems like it should be simple: You sit down, eat, and enjoy each other's company. But, well, there's a lot more to dinner than that. We hate to tell you.
And even though formal dinner parties are largely a thing of the past, there are still many scenarios in which being a proper diner is of the utmost importance. Whether you're at a wedding, a formal affair, or a nice restaurant, you don't want to be that guest at the table who's getting attention for doing all the wrong things.
Sure, everyone knows — or should know — that you shouldn't eat with your mouth full of food or dine with your elbows on the table, but what do you do with your napkin when you get up from the table?
So do you think you know how to be the most proper dining guest ever? Think again — you may not be as refined as you thought you were. Are you a slob, a sophisticate, or somewhere in between? Take our quiz and find out where you land!
