Thai food
Thai food is a type of food that was first made in Thailand. Thai food is often spicy, but does not have to be.[1][2] Thai food is shared with every person at the table. The meal is not thrown away. The Thai believe that throwing food away would anger the "god of rice".[1] Thai food is eaten with a fork and a large spoon.
