In Japan, it is customary to say “itadakimasu” before eating, which is a sort of grace, and which is not seen as religious at all.
Many languages have equivalents of bon appétit. That’s like “cheers!” but for food instead of drinks. (In English there’s “enjoy your meal” but IME IIRC it’s very uncommon among native speakers in non-formal situations.)
