As strange as it sounds, burping is considered good table manners in parts of China and in Bahrain- A small island country located in the Middle East, just south of Kuwait. It shows a sign of appreciation and satiety
 
#4- Is it ever polite to fart after a meal?

This is a new one for me.
I had heard that farting was NOT rude in certain cultures but I wasn’t really sure if it was true or not so I did a little research.
Turns out Farting after a meal is an expression of thanks and appreciation to the Inuit people of Canada.
