Li discusses the mannerism around serving and accepting tea in China. Wilk, on the other hand, discusses the symbolic act of serving, accepting and saving food in relation to table mannerism as different cultures and class concerns converge in America.

Your response can include information on the temperature, the vessel, the timing, whom it is served to first, why and how, by whom it is served, where and how it must be consumed and shared, the customs and etiquettes that must be observed in its serving and consumption, and other considerations, such as what leftovers mean when it comes to that food. Make sure to NOT discuss your family context, but a food protocol that is true for a larger culture. DO NOT discuss the ingredients, recipe or methods of preparation. Focus exclusively on the food protocol and mannerism in relation to serving and partaking.
