Reply To: Eating By Friends & Relatives

I guess this works best with people who accommodate one another.

I have relatives who unfortunately aren’t shomer Shabbos, but are convinced that they would only serve kosher. It’s just not possible to explain to them that their standards aren’t as high as those of anyone else.

This was a source of hard-feelings when I was growing up when we couldn’t accept their invitations to eat at their homes unless we brought food with us.
