If there's multiple pieces of silverware, use the outter-most fork that you haven't already used. (it will probably be the first or second course). You always start with the outter-most silverware and work your way in. Let them take that silverware when they clear your dishes to bring you the next course. Salad and fruit salad forks are usually narrow with three long prongs (or whatever they're called) instead of 4 shorter ones. And only eat it one piece at a time. It can be embarrassing if you pick up too much and it falls on your lap. Speaking of lap, put the napkin across your lap as soon as the first meal comes (not before).

Most cruises don't really care how you eat. I went on one the summer after my graduation and no one really cared how I ate my food. The waitstaff probably know that most people aren't accustomed to a 5-star restaurant or anything and won't bother you or look at you funny or anything.

HAVE FUN!!! Bring some stretchy clothes too. There's soooo much food available on cruises 24/7 that you're bound to gain at least a pound or two lol. But it's all so delicious, and you're paying for it, so go for it!



Just read your additional details, I wasn't sure what you meant. I see now, well you don't have to eat anything you don't want to. They usually give you about 3 or 4 options for each course, so see if you can find one that you like (or can at least bear with for a little bit). Eat whatever you can. If it still looks like you have a lot left, spread it around the plate so it doesn't look like as much and casually mention that you can't wait for dinner and don't want to fill yourself up on the salads first. I don't eat salad either, so that's what I always did. I ate the couple things I liked and left all the lettuce (or gave it to my mom who does eat salad).

I find lettuce the most boring - you might want to stick to stuff like cucumber, tomatoes, raw green and red peppers etc. And you can always make it more palatable by sticking some (SOME) salad dressing on, or just a bit of olive oil and vinegar, maybe humous or yoghurt and mint. Don;t forget there are many other sorts of salad than just "green salad" - think of rice salad, beans salad etc. just food that is cold basically. And it sounds like you should REALLY avoid eating celery.... the single most boring way of filling time on planet earth

try different salads. think outside of the box. go for what you like and mix it up. salad dosnt have to be bland.
keep an open mind about it!

fruit is awesome! maybe try dipping it in chocolate. that only sweetens the deal. :)

When you really want junk food, eat a half serving and substitute the other half with a fruit or veggie. Do this often and you'll eventually like it. I did and it worked.

Take small bites, chew with your mouth closed, don't speak before swallowing. Take your cues from those around you. Is that the only thing you're worrying about eating?

Well, you should probably eat your fruit with a fork (if it's an elegant type of dinner).

Open mouth and insert food, and while your chewing you could try reading a book on english grammar and also spelling.
