Is it time to change the communal eating culture?

I love sharing food with my family and friends. A shared meal brings people closer and creates social bonds. Sharing food is also a way of showing trust. But it would make me feel uncomfortable to share food when dining out with people I've just met. It's great to see local governments make it a rule for restaurants to serve public chopsticks. Shouldn't the rule be applied across the country?
