After a funeral, Special Dinners are organized in Lithuania.
Do you know: The dinner is a way for the mourners to ask the dead to leave the family unharmed.
Special dinners are organized as a treat for the soul of the deceased individual and the souls of other dead persons. The dinner is a way to ask for god blessings. However, what makes this dinner different is the fact that no one takes any food from the dinner. This is because the Lithuanians believe if someone does eat food at this dinner, then a member of that family will die soon.
