/ck/ - Food & Cooking

probably

Chopsticks are for the superior Asian man who takes time to enjoy his food and appreciate the flavor.

Fork is for the white pig who chow down everything without feeling the texture and taste of his meal.

ching chong ho ho me rikey rice

Why are they called chopsticks if you don't chop things with them? They should be called tweezy lifty sticks if anything.

Ask the stupid white people who name them chopsticks for some reason

>>10414461
>there are people that haven't reached the iron age and still eat food with wooden utensils
>>10414565
that's called efficiency.
>>10414572
in oriental times it was considered threatening to eat dinner with a knife on the table so food was chopped with chopsticks.

I made the mistake of buying stainless steel ones. Everything tastes like fucking metal. Ugh....

>>10414641
there's no point in trying to understand burger logic

>>10414645
I don't get why koreans use that man, doesn't it transfer heat quick?

>>10414644
>oriental times

>>10414650
Heat is not that much of a problem. And if you don't touch those with your tongue everything's fine. But eating noodles is a nightmare.

>>10414647
If I had to guess without doing any research I'd guess this is one of those marketing "re-branding" things to make it sound more appealing so that people buy it, sort of like how the kiwi used to be called a Chinese gooseberry

Let's play a game. You try and guess how I know you're american. Go

OHASHI MADE FROM JAPANESE BAMBOO FOLDED OVER 1000 TIMES
THAT WILL BE $300 GAIJIN, YOU PAY NOW!

>>10414673
>try and guess how I know you're american
because i can afford privatized healthcare.

>>10414565
I can enjoy food without having to spend and hour picking at it one by one with some wooden sticks.

>>10414792
That just means you don't know how to use chopsticks

>>10414461
I can use chopsticks, but not effectively.

>>10414644
I'm a white American, but dude you know that China reached the Iron Age well before most of Europe. Hell Egypt and Turkey for that matter.

>>10414461
I can.. but I won't.
Wouldn't judge anyone who couldn't, just like I won't judge anyone for not knowing how to ride a horse.

>>10414824
>China reached the Iron Age well before most of Europe
you missed the point of the post.
completely.
not a bit.
not slightly.
but completely.

>>10414461
And there are people on this board who have never shoved a finger right up their urethra. What's your point to soyboy nu-fag?

>>10415038
please go back

>>10414948
Nah you're just trying to be clever but miserably fails at it

>>10414778
No. Because you're dumb as fucking bricks.

>>10414461
I look like an idiot while using them, but I still do get by and personally, I really don't give a damn if I'm doing it correctly or not because I like to feel as if I live in a society that's progressed beyond such barbaric, retarded ways of doing things.

Asians also eat dogs, so there's that.

>>10414647
This is false. In Spanish they are called "Piña"

>>10414572
It's "hashi" in nipponese. Idk, why call it "japan" when it's "nihon"? Why call it "soy sauce" when it's "shoyu"? Ask me why white people do shit like that. If I go around calling them hashi no one will understand me, so no choice, thanks English.
>>10414674
I bought some made in japan hashi on amajew and it was like 1.50 a pair.

I'll use chopsticks anyway I want. And it wont be up to some japanese sneak attack so called honorable samari types either. They can fuck off.

>>10414461
why the fuck should i bother

>>10414572
Serious answer
Chop Suey was one of the first widely popular Chinese dishes in the states in the 40s-50s. You ate chop suey with "chop sticks".
So US manufacturers of the sticks just started to use the name and it stuck

>>10416175
1840's and earlier.

>>10416175
People are stupid enough to think that to be 1940's. Don't confuse the eurotards, they're already stupid enough as it is, don't make it worse.

>>10414461
>There are people on this board who aren't weebs
That is very true

>>10416216
lol, fair enough

Sorry gooks, the white man wins this battle

>>10416247
This is why I find offensive about japs, first off the way they treated their PoWs, and second how they sneaked the USA under their so called code of honor. OK fine, now it's done.

I find them pathetic and hypocritical.
