What is the relationship between the number of tableware and the number of people eating?

Tableware is a kind of utensils and appliances used to distribute or ingest food, and it is a kind of daily necessities, such as bowls, plates, knives, chopsticks and so on. Different places and nations have different food cultures, so tableware is different, such as forks. Tableware includes complete sets of metal utensils, ceramic tableware, tea sets and wine vessels, glassware, plates and trays, as well as containers and hand-held utensils with different uses. There are many disposable tableware on the market now, which is not good for the environment. Tableware is gradually developed, and wine glasses and things like spoons used in various ritual activities appeared at a fairly early stage. People in China used chopsticks as early as BC, but forks only appeared in Britain three or four centuries ago. When forks were first introduced to Britain, they were opposed by missionaries. They believe that meat and other foods are given by God for the benefit of mankind. Avoiding touching food with your fingers is rude and insulting to God.

Queen Elizabeth I also eats with her fingers, but there are very strict rules. According to Stacom, food "should be picked up with three fingers" and "it is indecent to lick or wipe greasy fingers on clothes". Towels and hand washing dishes are essential things. In Roman times, every guest brought his own towel. Napkins were only used for two or three hundred years, but they soon became a part of the table layout. Gail Ross, the chef of King charles ii, described various methods of folding napkins in his book A Complete Guide to Cooking. The dishes for personal use appear behind the "saucer". The saucer is actually a piece of bread. Let it absorb the juice of the meat placed on it before eating. Clean and hygienic, generally does not contain toxic substances. But glass tableware is fragile and sometimes "moldy". This is because the glass will be eroded by water for a long time, which will produce substances harmful to human health, so it should be washed off frequently with alkaline detergent. Stainless steel tableware: beautiful and generous, light and easy to use, corrosion-resistant and rust-free, deeply loved by people. Stainless steel is made of Fe-Cr alloy mixed with metals such as nickel and molybdenum. Some of these metals are harmful to human body, so be careful not to put salt, soy sauce and vinegar for a long time, because the electrolyte in these foods will react with stainless steel for a long time, so that harmful substances will be dissolved out. Do not use iron and aluminum tableware together, because aluminum and iron are two metals with different chemical activities. When water exists, aluminum and iron can form chemical batteries, which will lead to more aluminum ions entering food and bring greater harm to human health. Melamine tableware, also known as porcelain-like tableware and melamine tableware, is made of melamine resin powder by heating and die casting. It is a kind of tableware made of resin, and its appearance is similar to that of porcelain. Stronger than porcelain, unbreakable, bright in color and strong in finish. Safe and hygienic, non-toxic and tasteless, widely used in fast food industry and children's catering industry.

Couple tableware, as its name implies, is a pair of tableware, exclusive to couples. It captures the idea of seeking witness between modern lovers and design, and creates a practical, beautiful and unique tableware to express love. Antibacterial tableware, also known as disinfection tableware, is to add antibacterial agents to tableware raw materials so that tableware can be disinfected without any treatment. The main materials of sterilization tableware are melamine sterilization tableware, stainless steel sterilization tableware, alloy sterilization tableware and ceramic sterilization tableware. This kind of tableware can kill bacteria on the surface of tableware by using the principle of nano-silver sterilization. Disinfected tableware refers to tableware disinfected by special methods to kill pathogenic microorganisms. Don't choose to draw chopsticks. Paint contains many toxic substances, such as lead and cadmium. Disposable tableware: made of plastic, high foaming material, coated paper, etc. Once used, it is discarded.

According to national classification, tableware can be divided into Chinese tableware and western tableware. Chinese tableware is the tableware used by ordinary people in China. The so-called western tableware is the special tableware for eating western food, which generally includes knives and forks. Due to the developed catering industry in China, hotels and restaurants are generally public tableware, which is unsanitary, so various disinfection tableware have appeared one after another, and a number of enterprises taking disinfection appliances as an example have emerged.
