I’ve noticed in Moroccan culture, eating with hands is common, especially during communal meals. What’s the cultural reasoning behind this, and are there specific rules to follow?

Eating with hands, especially using the right hand, fosters a sense of community and connection during meals.

It’s considered respectful to take food only from the part of the communal dish directly in front of you.

Using bread to scoop food is common, but never lick your fingers—it’s seen as impolite.
