It is very stressful to be proposed a toast without preparation. The best solution at this time is to say how you feel. Toast never takes long. If you are asked to make a toast unprepared, you can say something simple to get out of trouble, such as "I say hello to Ken, and God bless you." Or "Say hello to our good friend and boss Greta"

But if you want to be more elegant and eloquent, you will want to add some memories, praises and related stories or jokes. However, a toast should be appropriate to the occasion. A sense of humor rarely seems out of place, but the toast at the wedding should focus on emotion, the toast to retired employees should focus on nostalgia, and so on.

At dinner parties, toasting is usually the priority of the host or hostess. If there is no toast, the guest can toast the host. If one of the hosts makes a toast first, the guest can make a toast in the second place.

There is usually a hostess when a ceremony is held. If there is no hostess, the chairman of the organizing Committee will make the necessary toast after the meal and before the speech. On less formal occasions, you can propose a toast after wine and champagne are served. The toaster doesn't have to drink the wine in the cup. One sip at a time is enough.

You can't touch any alcoholic drinks, including wine, even when toasting. When handing wine, of course you can refuse, and raise the goblet with soda water when toasting. In the past, there was no toast unless it was an alcoholic drink, but today all kinds of drinks can be used to toast. In any case, you should stand up and join this activity, at least you should not sit in your seat with great disrespect.

Dietary rituals cover a wide range and can be classified in many ways.

From emperors and princes to ordinary people, they all have extensive contacts with it and rely on it for social communication.

China has been a "state of etiquette" and a "state of food etiquette" since ancient times. Understanding ceremony, practice ceremony, observation ceremony and attention ceremony have a long history. The Book of Rites records that "the beginning of husband's ceremony begins with diet." The earliest food ceremony was directly related to the ancient ritual of offering sacrifices to the gods. In this regard, there is a general description in the Book of Rites, to the effect that the ancestors of primitive society baked millet and pork pieces on burning stones to worship food, dug holes in the ground as wine bottles to worship drinks with their hands, and beat the earthen drums with long mallets tied with thatch to show their respect and sacrifice to ghosts and gods. Later, the food ceremony expanded from the communication between people and ghosts to the communication between people, in order to adjust the increasingly complex social relations, and gradually formed the "five pre-Qin ceremonies" such as auspicious ceremony, fierce ceremony, military ceremony, guest ceremony and good ceremony, which laid the cornerstone of the ancient food ceremony system.

After the birth of the food ceremony, in order to make it better play the role of "governing the country, governing the country, making the people and benefiting future generations", Duke Zhou first revised his theological concept, put forward the ideas of "respecting morality" and "respecting Taoism", and made some specific regulations on the banquets of the royal family and princes through the system of rites and music. Then, the three masters of the Confucian school-Confucius, Mencius and Xunzi-continued to standardize food etiquette, supplemented the connotations of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and law, expanded the ethical relationship between adults, and "separated by etiquette" to eliminate disasters and solve problems. Their students also elaborated and enriched the predecessors' theories, and finally formed three classic works, Zhou Li, Yi Li and Li Ji, which became the core and soul of the feudal patriarchal clan system for thousands of years. Because of the emphasis on "people are rude, things can't be rude, countries are rude, and there is no peace", etiquette such as food ceremony has become the social norm and moral norm of the aristocratic hierarchy in slave society and feudal society, and has become an ideological tool to maintain the system of oppression and exploitation. However, there are some positive and healthy contents in ancient food etiquette, that is, the code of conduct between people and the etiquette of banquets and restaurants. In the long-term spreading process, it has been accepted by the broad masses of working people and evolved into various reasonable food etiquette and customs, which has become one of the outstanding cultural traditions of the Chinese nation.
