The spread of the epidemic has also brought the concept of separate meals back to everyone's field of vision, thinking that separate meals are very necessary.
We in China pay attention to a lively meal. We get together and eat from our plates. This is the way to eat since ancient times. Only in this way can we show the closeness between people. If there is a sense of closeness, how can food safety be guaranteed?
Think about it. A table of people ate around a dish, and chopsticks dipped in saliva touched other dishes on the plate. In other words, 10 people eat a dish, which is equivalent to eating the saliva of another 9 people. Body fluids are also an important way to spread pathogens.
I have a friend who runs a restaurant. I asked him if he could promote the dining system from the perspective of restaurants. My friend also said it was difficult because it involved a cost issue. A separate dining system means more tableware, and tables may not be enough. The most important thing is that there are not enough waiters. Everyone must order a separate dining system, and the kitchen may be too busy. A man ordered a dish. Think about how many kitchen staff they have to arrange.
If it is really a separate meal system, it can only be achieved by raising prices.
Personally, I don't think it is necessary to eat alone in the family, but in other occasions, it should be implemented. This eating habit is more hygienic. As long as everyone can accept this eating habit, there is no problem, and they are afraid of cultural incompatibility.
