So do you and your family bow your heads and pray before eating a meal in a restaurant?

Catholics are the only ones I have seen do it.

You need to get out of the northeast once in a while.

Well they're not because I attended a hunting trip with a friend who is a Baptist and he prayed before every meal in the restaurants we ate in......

Maybe we just see what we expect to see. My family (Protestant) has prayed in restaurants for years and notice when anyone else does it. I have never seen anyone cross themselves after saying grace.

When I was a kid the 12 of us would pray the few times we ate out. By the Grace of God we weren't Catholics. Plenty of Christians pray before meals while eating out as well as at home.

Catholics are the only ones I have seen do it.

How do you know they were Catholic, they mention Mary? Or are all praying people Catholic?
