Food & Drink

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?

i only pay for what i ate when i go out
its just a done deal no whingeing or money disputes very easy
the question is what about peoples eating habits, some are ok but eating with your mouth open or eating loudly etcc
if i go to a friends house i usually ask about the rules if it is bring your own then i really wonder about the event
whats the point of going to a friends house bring your own food and then eat it . you could stay at home instead it would be easier .
if i invite someone over i don't expect them to bring anything but themselves but some always bring a wine or choc which sometimes doesn't get touched
if you help yourself it is better to ask before you do
but not everyone thinks like me some just eat whatever and don't care
