Fork or chopsticks for you?

[lorenzomichael]

So you go out to eat an Asian dinner, or lunch or maybe you’re just having a tasty noodle snack? What do you prefer traditional chopsticks or do you just pull out the fork and forget about it?

[Chazmatazz269]

That depends on what i’m eating. If i can work it with chopsticks, i will. But some things require more skill than others. Rice, if it’s not sticky, i can’t make that work. Ell oh ell! Sometimes i like fried rice. So i’ll have a fork for the entire meal if i have fried rice. I’m not going to go back and forth. Noodles and most stir fry entrees are just fine. I actually like chopsticks better because it slows me down. Otherwise i can sometimes eat too fast. Which makes it easier to overeat.

If I'm with people who know me well, chopsticks.

If I'm in a professional setting and everyone is a performative moron I might use the fork just to not have to end up on someone's LinkedIn post.

[FreyaRed]

Depends. For noodles or some long cut veggies are chopstick better, however for steak, cutlet, fish or potatoes dishes I prefer a fork with knife.

Chopsticks
My dad taught me how to use them when I was little
We have disposable bags of chopsticks and reusable ones

[lorenzomichael]

It didn’t matter how hard I tried I could never get used to it, but it looks cool though I would still like to learn

[Wuai201]

It's better to teach someone by holding their hand and helping them pick up the food instead of just showing them
Some people get the fingers wrong
The motion wrong the length of where to put your fingers at or
All 3 lol
It takes time

[lorenzomichael]

Well, I better bump into you at a Chinese restaurant. You can show me.. lol🤣

[Wuai201]

You'll probably have a higher chance at a Japanese or Korean restaurant 😅

I embrace the traditional chopsticks whenever I'm indulging in an Asian meal. It's not just about the practicality but also about the immersive experience they provide. 🌟 During one of my trips to Japan, I learned that using chopsticks allows you to savor the flavors in a more authentic manner. Plus, it connects you deeply with the rich culinary heritage of the region. It makes the dining experience both exciting and engaging. 🍜

I’m not likely to ever be as proficient with chopsticks as I am with cutlery unless I were to suddenly decide to suddenly ditch all our silverware in favour of them or sharpen the ends and use them as kabobs 🤣

[Kabluie]

Always the chopsticks, can use the included spoon for broth. Sometimes rice is just easier with a fork if that is all that is left kind of things.

[Crimsyjo]

On a score out of ten o cam use chopsticks at like a 3 or 4. So not impossible but inconvenient enough I'll choose fork please.

[Rei13]

Chopsticks usually at Asian restaurants. I’ll use them for popcorn too lol

[AviatorTom]

At an oriental restaurant, I always use chopsticks.

[Phoenix98]

If I'm eating at a Chinese or Japanese restaurant I'll use chopsticks.

[Anonymous]

Depends what I’m eating
I like chopsticks more, but i usually end up using a fork. Just becuz i don’t really have chopsticks.

[DryGermanGuy]

A fork and knife set, please.

[Anonymous]

If I'm eating sushi it has to be chopsticks. For other Asian foods it mostly just depends on my mood.

[Xoirwinkan]

For good food you only need a fork and/or a spoon, and a knife if pushing it.

[Kingofkings1992]

Fuck chopsticks. Forks all day long. Whoever invented chopsticks should get strapped into a chair and beaten with a hammer lol

[warlock83]

Chopsticks. I taught myself how to hold them perfectly (it was not easy, being a lefty and all)

[XXblack88]

Chopsticks as long as it's not rice

[lorenzomichael]
