A word that should never be said at the the dinner table...

The word NO.

If you ask someone a question about food at the table, and it causes them to say no, you have not been a good host.

Never ask, Would you like more salad, or fruit...", never ask a question at the dinner table about food that would require someone else to say no, or no thank you.

It puts a big negative on the positive act of eating.

It's weird to put someone in the position to say no at the dinner table, it's manipulative, and it is uncalled for.
