In Denmark, the host will sometimes serve soup or another light dish to signal that it’s time for them to leave. It’s actually informally known as “go away-food”
I wish I had the confidence and rudimentary cooking abilities to serve guests go away-food 😆
you sure it’s not called “annoying cancer-cunt-twat tuberculosis coffee”?
I think the literal translation of the name is “rot away coffee” so it might have something to do with tuberculosis or leprosy? The rest is reserved for special occasions, unless you’re from Rotterdam of course.
Are you expected to eat fuck off soup, or should you fuck off right away?
It’s up to you, really. You can fuck off right away, eat the soup and then fuck off or you can have fucked off before the soup was served 🤷
It very much is. Maybe it’s not a custom in your part of the country but here in Østjylland and in Himmerland, it definitely is.
So ist the logic behind this to say “looks we were planning on having dinner about now” implying that the guest is intruding but in order to show hospitality, you’d have to invite them to the meal, so you server some plain-ass soup that won’t cost you squat if the guest should accept your offer but is bland enough so that the guest will likely pass anyway?
