What is the correct thing to do if you have to spit something out at dinner?!


Question:

What is the correct thing to do if you have to spit something out at dinner?

if you chewed on a tough piece of meat or a tendon or something you can't swallow, and you're at an important dinner or hot date, HOW?


Answers:
Eat with care. That is, cut your piece of meat in bite size (do not cut the whole piece of meat into many bite sizes and pick on them. cut one at a time and only when you are ready to put the 2nd cut into your mouth) and chew slowly. Look carefully which part of the meat you are less likely to chew and avoid that area.

For other food, bite what you can chew so that your mouth is not too full and to avoid casualties having sharp or tough parts cutting your tongue and gum.

If all fails and you still have to spit, cover your mouth with the napkin/serviette and slowly push the food out from your mouth and wipe your lips so that you do not have strings of saliva. And apologise to your date saying you have chew on some tough meat.

Do not try to swallow cos you might choke and that is an ugly sight.

Cough into your napkin

Discreetly spit it out in your napkin and then fold your napkin into your lap until the end of the evening. Or go to the bathroom...

Try and use your napkin discreetly. It is often better to admit to what you are doing but still do it with class.

You discreetly put it in your napkin and hope you won't have to use the napkin before the meal is over.

discreetly use your napkin

The best answers are above...........cover your mouth and spit it into your napkin discreetly!!

use the napkin or some distraction.. get them to look away while u spit it out !!

Knock over your glass of wine and spit it out when nobody is looking. Or, you can be boring and just lift you napkin to your mouth and put it there.

Quietly put the napkin over your mouth and spit it out. don't make a big fuss about it. Then fold the napkin a put it off to the side for the rest of the meal.

you spit it into your napkin as inconspicuously as possible.

If you're on a date you should spit it out and hit them right between the eyes. This is considered to be the highest degree of politeness in many cultures, and it's a good omen for your relationship.

I find the best way to get rid of it is to fake choking and when the hero at the table jumps up and performs the Heimlich Maneuver on you , you can then spit it right in the face of anyone sitting at the table you do not like. Works every time.

You have several choices.
1. Take a tip from the first President Bush. Do you remember when he got sick eating sword fish at some state dinner? He slid under the table as he threw up. Very funny news video. It is not everyday you see a President of the United States puking as he slides off his chair and under a table.

2. Act like you are wiping your mouth while you spit the offensive bit of food into your napkin. (By the way, it is ALWAYS obvious that you are really spitting out food, but what the heck at least you tried.)

3. (My favorite) Just lean back with your face pointed up at a 3/4 degree angle and inflate your cheeks. Then with all of the pressure you can possibly manage blow the food over your date's head as far across the room as you can with a loud Pooooohhhh!! sound. Then say in a loud voice: "Man this chow blows! Let's get out of here." If you were on a hot date with me, I would be on the floor laughing and I would NEVER forget you. I might never go out with you again, but I would never forget you.

Utilize the napkin, pretend you are coughing and spit the meat into the napkin!

Point you finger to a window and shout "Look!! A flying saucer!!" And when everybody turn and look at the window, spit on your napkin without anyone noticing.

put it in a napkin

i will use a tissue to cover n spit into tissue..

Do it in the toilet.

put a napkin up to your mouth and calmly put it in napkin and lower napkin to your lap.

Just do a karrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrk phueeeeey

use your napkin like you are wiping your mouth and spit it into that, I'm married so I just spit it on the plate or table, lol

run away

You don't spit, period. Drink some water and swallow it as you would a pill or something.
Spitting isn't very ladylike, or cute. :)

Well, I would spit it in my napkin or go to the bathroom.

you stand up spit it out and at the same time launch your right foot catching the offending piece of food on the volley and kicking it straight into the waiters face.Then sit down as if nothing happened.If you find a second bit of tough food just do the same.
