"Various foods are eaten with the fingers instead of fork or spoon. Bread, for instance, is never cut but always broken into small pieces and lifted to the mouth with the fingers. Butter is seldom provided at the formal dinner, but if it is, each little piece of bread is buttered individually just before it is eaten. Crackers and cake are eaten in the same way; although some cakes and pastries are eaten with the fork. Those that can be eaten daintily with the fingers such as macaroons, lady-fingers, cookies, etc., should be eaten so while layer cake and elaborate pastries should be eaten with the fork."

Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let`s analyze each answer:

A. Written in a very formal way this text serves as a rule or rather a set of instructions for consuming certain food in a good manner.

B. Although some of the food listed can be found on the table during holidays, the main emphasis is on the specific manner of food consumption (by hands or fork) rather than a season of food consumption.

C. The text gives instructions on proper eating, not preparing food.

D. Similar to the answer B, the mentioned food is not culturally specific, food is eaten in this manner in almost every culture.
