Proper table manners shouldn't be taught for formal dinners within your GLO, but also for reasons beyond that. Business programs sometimes teach table manners just in case you are invited to dinner in say, India or Japan, for example. Also, what if you are invited to a sister/brother's house for dinner over vacation? Say that sister/brother is Korean. In any case, the unabridged versions of Emily Post and Amy Vanderbilt (latest editions) do deal briefly with other cultures, I'm pretty sure.
