It seems like every culture expects guests to want to eat regardless of their circumstances, and if you refuse, you’re automatically rude and insulting.
If I offer you food and you refuse, I’m going to be quite happy. It means I get to save money and have more food to myself. I ain’t offering a second time if you say no the first time :maduro-coffee:
You'd think if they wanted to spread their weird cult the least they could do is learn a little bit about sacred hospitality. You basically just promised not to rob and murder them but do they have enough grace to accept? no!
