I was asking someone on what do they do with the food after they made an offering to the dead?
They kept saying other things, I don't get if they don't understand my question or not....
Make an offering, with food or gifts, so... I am not going to sit around with a shot glass of sake or fruit all year... well maybe the sake if it doesn't attract flies...
But eventually, it'll get tossed out or something else. Just wondering on the something else part... I am not going to eat it but seems like a waste to toss fruit and teas.
I was actually kinda curious on this too. I can see if the food is offered within a tomb but in those regions where the dead is actually kept in the home, I wonder how it goes down.
