I assume this mean when going to not-so-close-friends - otherwize I expect my friends to know about my WOE and if not doing a totally low carb meal, at least supply meat/sallad and the pasta separately.

So, I combine! I always eat a little before I leave home, so I will not be too hungry. I than eat what I can eat from what is offered. Just in case: I keep a small bag of macadamia nuts if I will not be satisfied from what is offered, so I can have a quick snack later in the evening.
