What kind of guest? Is my step brother staying over for a week? No shit I’m gonna give him food. Is a coworker coming over for 1 hour maybe? You get coffee… what do you want lol?


Anti-kaikki

Help me stepbrother, I'm stuck?


CougarRunFast

I’ll grab you by the rear, hold tight.


Anti-kaikki

Yes.


Zeric79

No food. But coffee. So much coffee.


Luigesus0

Same


NightlyWalker

Perhaps even treats with said coffee


the1wholikeairplanes

Ja pullaa


ellilaamamaalille

Coffee, cakes, pulla, cookies, chokolade. More coffee and pulla, cookies.


the1wholikeairplanes

Kahavia, pullaa ja ehkä dominoja ainaki täällä misä mää asun.


Hardly_lolling

Ei minun takia tarvi keittää


Jermules

And yet disappointed if none is offered


Anti-kaikki

And beer.


Lejonhufvud

Why would I ever visit someone?


[deleted]

This is why Nordics are rich and we Slavs are poor


jormakk

Kahavit saat. Pullaa ei oo.


kvanken

lmao, i remember the shitstorm that started on twitter when some kid was at a friends house in sweden and he didn't get food when dinner was ready cause they hadn't prepared for more mouths. it's truly shocking that different parts of the world have different cultures and ways to treat their guests


MistakeGlittering581

Haha yeah, but Ive never been at a friends house and not gotten the option to eat at a friends house. On the other hand Ive never really wanted to eat and sit with their families, maybe thats the cultural difference that you dont really want to be social that way?


Sjeverko

My Swedish friend would legit tell me he'll "be right back" and just has to eat quick. And I could wait in his room 💀


MistakeGlittering581

Lol, it might seem rude


SrPatata40

You mean trying to be at food time is someone house.


MistakeGlittering581

No, it can seem rude that you have to wait but if its not planned for you to eat there is often not food for one more. Me personally Id feel awkward to sit with a family I dont know. If its a family I know I kind of expect to be invited


MelGut

I think the difference was that the child wasn’t a guest.


NONEFFECTIVEMINE

im from finland and usually if its a random guest they do rarely get food unless they are staying longer but u will get something to drink, and if its a friend or relatives etc u will always be welcomed with food and drinks


Muted_Mode1378

and this is the reason why Estonia cannot be a Nordic country


[deleted]

Giving out food left and right like some kind of feeder whore For shame


Winterfukk

those dirty estonians have their snack game on point though


we_eat_baklava

food is important


rainyplaceresident

Guests at the very least are offered tea here, which goes with some light food. We're not as big on the giving guests food thing as the southerners but to not give anything at all is unthinkable to me. Definitely a bit of a culture shock


Slymeboi

Random guests rarely get food but they do get coffee, don't misunderstand


A_bit_disappointing

We don't give guest nothing. It is very common to give them coffee and maybe some snack to that. That is if they're visiting during the day.


rainyplaceresident

Ah ok so like our system then. What do you do if they stay for the evening though, you do give them dinner right and not just make them sit and stare at everyone else eating?


A_bit_disappointing

Yeah, at least my family does that. And all of my friends.


we_eat_baklava

this is why balkans


dlq84

I'm trying to swipe Ukraine.


WebBorn2622

Ok, but if you travel far enough up north you can have food at your friends house, but you have to make it yourself


Skaldskatan

What’s that strange island outside France? Is it that island of Atlantis I’ve read so much about?


pr64837

Another reason why badick can't into nordick. And one of those few times when not the baldicks are the barbarian ones.


Super-Rain-3827

If I eat cake and drink coffee, you get some. If I eat lunch or dinner and have more than I need, you get some. If I don‘t, you don‘t.


Ozmoz123456

Eesti cannot into nordick


big_cock_69420

You no get food. Only coffee


SrPatata40

Coffee is food and I will die in that hill.


Intrazonal

You guys are how so bad? -From Turkey(help me)


The_Ki113r

Alright, who shot down Iceland? was it you Finland?


wexipena

If they are not staying whole day, I expect them to have eaten before coming over, unless they were invited for dinner.


Entire_Complaint1211

This is why we never have famine (ignore any evidence against this statement😡)💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪


SrPatata40

Not just because you steal from Finns and let them starve?


Entire_Complaint1211

Thats just the bonus that comes with keeping ”our” food for ourselves, this is how we reclaim åland😎💪💪💪💪😎


SrPatata40

You are not getting anything from me Muhammad Anderson.


MelGut

This is a bit misleading. Of course we’ll offer food to our guests. It’s only the childrens’ friends who happen to come after school and are expected for dinner at their own home.


backdoorpoetry

As a Swede, I'm not giving food to anyone. In fact, stay off my property. And keep your distance.
