Eating separately is good for your health. The hepatitis A epidemic in Shanghai shocked the world. During the SARS period in Guangzhou, people began to vigorously promote the separate meal system. In daily life, a person adds clean chopsticks to eat food on the plate in order to be clean, which greatly affects the appetite of others. In short, it is very unsanitary.
Eating separately means that dining utensils are separated, and people sitting together can eat as much as they want and as much as they can. It is not recommended to eat with the same chopsticks, which is not in line with sanitary habits.

Historical inheritance
Archaeologists in Shang Dynasty found from a large number of fragments of Li unearthed from Yin Ruins that Wei was only enough for one person to eat and was a vessel for cooking porridge. Therefore, it can be inferred that people ate under the separate system of one person and one meal at that time.
During the Zhou and Qin Dynasties, people spread seats on the ground, with a console table on the table, five seats for the emperor and two seats for the doctor. This situation reflects that we are still eating separately.
By the Han dynasty, this kind of meal sharing system was more clear. The emperor sat on the front steps, the queen sat on one side, and the ministers sat on both sides, each with a table.
Archaeological excavations of Han murals and brick paintings of Han tombs also provide clear evidence: at that time, people sat on the floor, each with a case.
The written records of the Hongmen Banquet describe the specific situation of meal sharing for us more clearly. During the dinner, Wang Xiang and Xiang Bo sat in the east, Fan Zeng in the south, Pei Gong in the north and Sean in the west. There are five people in a case.
