One phrase was enough for RoRo Bueno to set social media ablaze: her parents taught her that if someone invites you to eat, the right thing to do is choose the cheapest item on the menu.
It is not known for certain whether the quote is really hers, but that did not stop it from becoming a must-discuss topic. The influencer defended one specific idea: discretion as a form of respect toward the person extending the invitation, almost a rule of good manners passed down at home.
The opposing views did not take long to clash. One group says it is simple common sense, a way not to take advantage of someone else’s generosity. Another responds just as firmly: an invitation is an invitation, and placing conditions on what can be ordered sounds more like an excess of rules than real politeness. Which side do you stand on in this discussion?
