    • Abstract:
      The article criticizes people who attend dinners or banquets. The preparations in dinner parties are remarkable as both for party hosts and guests. Cooks who happened to be conservative often put their interest on what people do, what they eat and do not eat. The rules of dinner parties are speculated about what is wrong with the guests. Oftentimes, party hosts are keen observers of what their guests have eaten or did during an event. They also based their observations on modern cooks and conservative cooks.
