Dinner Time

Many of us enjoy going out for dinner, or to a friends house for a bbq, but what happens when it comes time to eat and drink? For example, in the case of a bbq, should you only eat what you brought or the equivalent (i.e don't eat the steak if you only brought sausages) or because its a group situation should you feel free to help yourself to whatever is on offer?
Also if you are eating out with a group, should you split the bill evenly amongst the group, regardless of whether you've ordered the most or least expensive thing on the menu, or should everyone pay for what they ordered?

Mmmm,
I think it depends on what the host says when they invite you.
If they say BYO, then BYO and eat what you bring.
But if they are poviding Meat, for example, then that suggests that meat is to share around, so you bring sides to share around too.
I really think you should drink alcohol you bring, again unless supplied by the host.
Softdrinks etc are up for grabs, especially for kids, but I think keep your own alcohol to yourself, and let people know if you are happy to share yours. But I wouldn't help myself to others drinks unless they suggested it.
