It is disrespectful to waste food, hence you are advised to take only as much food as you can finish. Sticking chopsticks vertically in the bowl represents sticking incense in the ashes while praying to God or to the ancestors or to those who are deceased. Hence, please refrain from doing so and place the chopsticks horizontally on the top of the bowl instead.
