The etiquette of eating a meal in Qatar is not the same as it is in other countries. It has its own traditions and norms which are followed by everyone. The best way to handle this is to always be polite and courteous when you eat a meal with someone, even if they are your hosts. If you want to eat something that's not on their list of food items, make sure you ask them first before trying anything new as they will consider it an insult if you just go ahead and try whatever they don't like.
