[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family is from the south. I never invite someone to my house and not offer them food. My husband's family is from new York, they will have you over for hours and basically starve you out. It's the difference between a hospital person and one who isn't.[/quote] And I will counter your anecdotal evidence: my family is from NY and they make sure to have favorite foods in the fridge and a meal waiting when you arrive. Then when you go to a different family member's house it's another meal waiting. There is always food immediately offered. Because my NY family is hospitable. I visit many friends down south and am usually offered alcohol first and foremost upon arrival, not food. I think it's totally fine and consider my southern friends hospitable as well. PS I am from NY, live in DC, had a friend visit this weekend from the south and made sure to stock the fridge and cabinet with her favorite foods. And picked her up from the airport.[/quote]
