With family, I sit quietly. I may or may not mumble amen (should I add a 't' at the end?!?)

But if it's people I don't know well, I stare at my food. Maybe I should make everybody listen to a PJ song before they eat at my place.

I think that you would be just fine to stare at your food. I'm a prayer girl at dinner at home, but I have to say that should I be in the company of my friends who aren't prayer people, I skip it. There is no need to expose people to religion when they don't want to be.

Aside from the prayers my dad and other family members have made before/during meals for the Jewish holidays, I haven't really been exposed to it in that sense.

But...I figure nothing wrong with my sitting in silence for a minute or so while others give thanks for what they have.

(that IS saying grace, no? Like I said, not much experience from here).

WhatYouTaughtMe

I am not a believer but I do bow my head in silence out of respect for others and I am thankful for the food I am about to receive. I just don't know who or what I am thankful to.

I'm not a very religious person, but I say grace before each meal. Same one we said when I was a kid.

No, but when we are out and I get hungry I have said

Rub a dub dub
I need some grub
