You don't have to eat every little last morsel of food on your plate to be polite.

However, the more you do eat, the more the hostess is pleased. But, if the meal contains some food to which you are allergic or just simply don't like,

instead of leaving all of that particular food, it usually works well if you

push it around a little, even possibly concealing a portion of it underneath

something else where it won't be so noticeable that you didn't touch it.

Rearranging any food that you don't eat is usually effective, as far as the

hostess is concerned. If you think she might be offended, however, you

might mention to her alone, sometime after the meal, that you were unable

to eat the food to which you are allergic.

Also, during the meal, be sure to compliment the hostess on something that

you truly enjoyed. If the time seems appropriate, you might even ask her

about the ingredients in a certain dish or what the preparations were.
