[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op back. I’ll have to add the “that is so odd” for the shock from PPs at taking plates home as from the circles I have been in people always take food from events with them home when there is extra. What do people in your circles do with the extra food after the event or holiday dinner? [/quote]

Holiday meal leftovers belong to the host, unless offered to guests.  [/quote]

Oh damn - a whole new post right here. [/quote]

I mean, if the host purchased the ingredients for the meal, this is undeniably correct, no? I think it's nice when a host offers leftovers to their guests, but it's beyond rude for guests to whip out a Tupperware and pack up food for themselves, unless this is the known "culture of the family." If someone did this in my house my mouth would be hanging open in shock. [/quote]

Op here. This reminds me of when you bring a bottle to be shared for a dinner and it’s never opened. Does the host keep it or do you get to take it home? [/quote]

This is a "hostess gift" and is not meant to be served at the dinner-it is for the host(ess) to be used at their discretion. Under no circumstances do you take it home. [/quote]
