always at the table
always with knife and fork
always with cloth napkins

But what did you eat?

Mom worked 2nd shift

Dad worked 1st

We never ate together. My sister cooked for me when I was little.

Everyone screamed, cursed, fought over food, farted and burped at the table, threw utensils and banged our fists and cups on the table. But we did all sit down at the same time at a table.

Both parents being chefs I ate like a king, and I tried both real russian caviar and black truffles before the age of ten. Even today we mostly socialize over dinner.

No family meals. Everyone ate in their separate rooms. Sometimes we went out to eat and we all paid for our own food.

we used our mouths. how did your family eat?

Every meal at the dining table, except for the rare exception when it was someone's birthday or other special event. Then we ate out; always at a fancy place. My mother cooked the majority of the meals, sometimes my dad helped out too. No fast food, no take out, nothing "instant".

same

at a table, together.

once i left home, that mostly stopped. i wasn't around, my sister never left her room anymore and that was that.

Parents ate in the living room, I ate alone in the dining room.

Always together at the dinnertable. Dad was/is often away because his job involves a lot of dinners with clients. Everything was discussed during dinner.

Around the TV like a normal family.

Typical Yoruba shit. Lots of starch and red meat.

Very sad memories. My dad didnt have a very good job, my mom did (nurse) and she was on shift so i dont remember seeing her much as a kid. My brother and I were latch-key kids. We either figured out some shitty snack for dinner or my dad would cook frozen food and some starch. For some reason i still love his basic meal....chicken fingers dipping in generic plum sauce and white rice with a bit of margarine and soy sauce.


They did the best, they supporter my brother through med school and me through college. We used to eat sitting crosslegged on the floor with our plate on a coffee table while watching "hey arnold" simpsons and shit from the 90's. I thought it was normal. My brother is very smart and noticed this wasnt normal among his friends whose parents were better off. He asked my mom and dad to have dinner with us all once a week. And we did that for years, until my bro went to uni and I moved out.


My parents have since changed the diet and only good food is in there house. Dad got lucky and got a better job and mom stopped working shifts.....Im the only fuck up in the senpai now.

but is not normal senpai

Starting at 15 I ate all my meals alone in my room.
It got pretty dirty but it sure beats getting yelled at for everything and possibly beaten

I think you'll find it is.

Food was placed into our faceholes, then crushed there before being pushed down along the necktube into the acidpit and processed further for nutrient extraction.

My dad is a farmer so most of the time we were eating something coming out of our garden which is nice but some vegetables get tiresome after awhile (mainly Asparagus, Squash, and Sweet Corn because we'd normally eat these on a daily basis). We normally eat together, even when my brother used to play baseball, but there are times when my dad's out harvesting, or my mom's travelling for work that we don't. Also since I finished High School, I've been cooking for us all and that'll come to an end when I move out sometime this year. I should note I graduated both HS and college at this point

My mom and dad worked a lot so we usually ate shitty fast food or whatever my mom got for us before she left for work.

When my parents were home my mom wouldn't cook because she is terrible at cooking.

My dad used to make Sunday lunches/dinners and they usually consisted of some type of delicious roast or steak and a lot of potatoes and veggies.

Once his dad died we stopped eating together. Meals were always quiet and akward but it felt really nice to be together for even just a little bit.

Mom made dinner which we always ate separately. I mean, why elbow each other at a small table and eat when you're not hungry simply to honer an outdated meme?

The day after dad would always burn some leftovers in the frying pan for me and my sister.

Not well.

like my dad always said, families that eat together skeet together.

Can't eat dinner at the table anymore because my 90+ grandmother eats like a fucking slob and is the loudest chewer ever. Also she smells like shit.

>eating

Nice dubs. What State are you in?

Alaska, you?

Why her? Don't you know for yourself?

My parents were white bread 1950s old fashioned WASP-y types so it was pretty much bland generic meat and potatoes with little seasoning all the way down.

We generally ate in silence; not sure why but my parents just didn't like to talk. As a result I'm now painfully shy and although I have housemates I eat alone in my room in the evenings and don't eat with my coworkers at lunch

I started this thread like this a few weeks ago. Prepare for bad feels.

Old fashioned WASP-y types would have someone else cook it.

>Ate together
>Most of the time food was something homecooked either my mom or dad made
>Pretty healthy stuff overall
>Cried recently when I discovered that my parents didn't eat at times so that my brother and I always had food

My parents are badass.

how the fug do you eat with the plate on your lap?
itll be wobbling all over the fucking place erry tim you try and cut anything.
Cunts probably don't even have a table

watch tv alone until attractive cousin came over. then the whole family would see me act a fool to try to impress her. id just come alive. was never aware of how dumb i looked for so long that i cringe

>Dad has to work, mom maked some shitty food. Nasty Hot Dogs or some shit
>We eat in the table, the same as last night
>They are all quiet, mom is acting like a bitch, dad tries to act like he doesnt care and then slaps mom
>This is normal for me, take some cookies and cherry Koolaid and go play some Jak and Daxter

Thats the resume for my childhood, I escaped at 13 and currently live with my grandma (19). Dad was murdered and mom has dissapeared. I sometimes act like my mom and dad with my girfriend, I dont want to make the same mistakes they did. I dont want to end up beated up by some thugs and be in a coma for half a year. But somehow I know that is going to be my end.

on one of these.

Step dad loved regular potatoes with some meat and veggies. So 4 out of 7 days we ate the most boring meals. Burned me out of potatoes.

Emergency in Sector 3.

your grandma is 19?
