Error in Leaving over food?

[edit]

I think you have it backwards. It says here that leaving over food is a sign to the host that you want more. And finishing your food is a sign that you don't want more. This is very illogical. Is it a mistake? Davidbessler (talk) 00:46, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, it is not. I've been in japan and a restaurant owner told me it is true. 149.62.204.202 (talk) 15:18, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
