I heard a while ago that for the Chinese, it was good manners to finish everything on your plate, that nothing should be wasted, especially rice. A couple days ago, I heard about how they taught the American Olympians about Chinese customs and a guy said that they were told it was bad manners to leave nothing on your plate because that would mean they weren't fed enough, and that would be insulting to the Chinese.
What are the true Chinese table manners?
