Can't ever have too much cake!
According to a book I just read, I only can take ONE (piece of) cake.
(The Xenophobic Guide of the Dutch)


It appears not to be Dutch at all.
(in NL, if you visit someone, and you're given a piece of cake while having coffee, you'll only get ONE piece of cake. One doesn't like you to take a 2nd one, so they say)
and cookies too!Oh! I see, it's considered rude. Well at my house you can have all the cake you wish!and cookies too!

It's weird tho... because I've never been anywhere where you weren't allowed to take another piece of cake or another cookie or anything really...![]()

Maybe people just don't tell you and then talk about you behind your back when you leave - I've seen that happen!
