What habits or practies have you adopted from cultures besides your own?
For example, I'm a white Jewish guy but I've adopted the Japanese practice of keeping dedicated house slippers at the front door.

A few jump to mind.
I say No Worries quite a lot.
I use chopsticks as much as a fork at home.
I take my shoes off inside.
I'll order a Pint.
What culture says "no worries"? I've heard it so much I thought it universal by now.
I picked it up from Aussie slang
Ah yes. Heard it from them too, quite often.
Chopsticks I do use whenever they are easier (noodles, salad) and also for eating potato chips. I leave my shoes on though, we have dogs, it's a lost cause. Roomba runs about 3 hours a day.
