A "bib" is often a piece of cloth wrapped around the neck and over the chest. Used to keep basic garments clean while eating (especially for babies). The chest number or running number used to identify runners in a marathon is fastened to the chest and is comparable to a bib. As a result, the running number is abbreviated as BIB. Also called "numbering system." Another meaning of bib refers to the act of tasting food before it is eaten. The eater removes the morsel from between his or her teeth with his or her tongue and then puts it in his or her mouth. This is common practice among carnivorous animals for flavor and texture improvement. However, since humans are vegetarians, this behavior is important only if you are interested in tasting your food. The term "bib" comes from the French word boucher, which means "to cut meat". Before the commercial production of vegetables, all fruits, and herbs, people had to eat meat to get essential nutrients they needed in their daily lives. As a result, people used to chew raw meat as a source of nutrition and flavor. In fact, this is why people say that you can taste the quality of life through your teeth! These days, people mostly use spoons to eat with instead of their teeth. However, some consider this habit to be vulgar and behave accordingly. The important thing is that you should not do this at restaurants or with friends; it's considered rude.
