Cite needed for "bourgeois society"[edit]

These objections have led some critics to deride the modern placemat as an artifact of mid-20th century bourgeois society.^{[citation needed]}

The above needs a reference, once found, it can be readded to the article. - Roy Boy 16:18, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

An excellent article on the subject was published sometime back but it is now again replaced by this lousy writup. Wonder who is deleting or replacing the articles on wikipedia.

Yes there was a good article but some moron has changed it. How can placemat go to food and drink section? any sense? do you eat or drink it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Umraz (talk • contribs) 12:54, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
