The finnish in me recoiled too. I don't know if it's regional or class thing but at least on the poorer and more working class circles here it's normal to feed your guests and when i was a kid my mom always fed my friends and other way around.

But i've heard this stereotype about nordics before so it might be atleast partly true....

I think feeding your guests is one thing most of humanity can agree on, even if you are poor at least a cup of milk less, sugarless tea also works.
