Bread and salt are an important element of Polish tradition reflecting hospitality and respect.

For centuries, bread and salt have also been part of the Polish wedding ritual with the bride and groom greeted by their in-laws with best wishes.

The first two topics have been suggested by John J. Petrus, our regular listener from the USA.
