In Massachusetts at a wake, mourners may eat no more than three sandwiches. It is one of those laws that was written in books and never removed since then. Bad manners, one might consider it, but in Massachusetts it is a criminal offense.
在马萨诸塞州,守丧期间,哀悼者只能吃三个三明治。这是被写进书里的法规之一,从来没有被改过。很可恶的礼节,你可能会想,但是在马萨诸塞州(如果你吃了3个以上)这就是犯罪行为。
