  6. I love to stare at food before I eat them. My auntie who is a Japanese once said it's very rude to do that in the Japanese culture.It means that we kind of show disrespect towards the host/cook/chef/whoever la.

    Oops,can't help it!I stare because I always try to count how much calories I'm having for each food portion XD hehehe
