eating begins in order of seniority, with each diner taking the cue to start from his or her immediate superior. children are taught to eat equally from each ts'ai dish in turn, never betraying a preference for a particular item by eating more of it, never seeming to pause to choose a specific bite from the plate. in order to cool the soup a bit and to better diffuse the flavor in the mouth, soup is eaten by sipping from the spoon while breathing in. this method, of course, produces the slurping noise that is taboo in the west. to eat fan, a diner raises the bowl to her lips and pushes the grains into her mouth with chopsticks. this is the easiest way to eat it and shows proper enjoyment -- eating fan from a bowl left sitting on the table suggests dissatisfaction with the food. the diner must finish all the fan. to leave even a grain is considered bad manners, a lack of respect for the labor required to produce it.
