continental usally

You spank the monkey while eating the American way?

I rarely make or eat food that has to be cut at the table, so american. If I can't cut it with the fork itself I'll cut as I need so why hold the knife the entire time?

>>20273107
That's not an American style, it's a British style
American style is Continental

>>20273129
Really it's European v anglosphere

>>20273107
reverse continental style sigmas, where we at?

>>20273147
nonsense

>>20273122
Yup, it’s a fun little game we like to play. Whoever cums before they finish their food gets to have dessert

>>20273107
>having a utensil pressed on the plate at all times
???
American is clearly the only right way.

>>20273147
No, Americans usually don't even use forks to eat.

>>20273129
>>20273147
Are you guys retarded. We eat like on the right in Britain. You will literally make shit up to complain about us

clearly not continental

>>20273107
continental when cutting with knife, burger when not.

>>20273180
This.

>>20273168
so are you saying no one eats like on the left and they just made that shit up for (you)s?

>>20273107
I can't cut things with my left hand and switching your fork back and forth between left and right hand is autistic

>>20273182
if I cut everything up before I eat it with a knife in my right hand I will set the knife down and eat with a fork in my right hand.

>>20273185
the absolute state of low coordination plebs...

>>20273193
that genuinely sounds really autistic, that's what you do for toddlers where I live

>>20273198
I bet you won't say that to my face while I have a knife in my right hand bitch.

>>20273151
Sense.
>>20273163
Thats silly.
>>20273168
>we
Tell me you're from London without telling me you're from London.

>>20273210
>Thats silly.
No, it's not, if we see what Americans eat, we'll notice that more than half of the meals of the average American are eaten with bare hands.

>>20273213
>burgers, pizza, kike deli sandwiches, tacos, burritos, hot dogs, corn dogs, tendies, fries, potato and corn chips
huh.

>>20273179
Their comedy isn't really my thing but I do really like that one skit.

>>20273209
Got my knife in my left bitch nigga, pull up

>>20273209
Here in Oz we do knives in both hands.

>>20273223
Yes, foods that Americans eat and are usually eaten with bare hands, in contrast with Europeans (or most former colonies) that eat food that requires forks and knives.

>>20273222
its a type of relatable you don't want to admit

>>20273223
my dad eats all of that with a fork

>>20273222
that's how it is for me as well anon

Proper. Lol. As if society is even functional enough for last century manners and grooming to matter.

Wake the fuck up.

>>20273122
a pleasure second only to jerking off while taking a shit

>>20273230
>foods that Americans eat and are usually eaten with bare hands, in contrast with Europeans
Yes, more civilised cultures avoid eating with their hands, because that's how you get parasites. It is safer to use forks, or chopsticks.
However we do encourage the paypig people to eat with their hands, because we want them to have parasites. We need mindless consoomers.

>more than half
>Americans only eat pizza and burgers
>britbongs don't eat burgers and pies, they eat pasta and steak
>Frenchman don't eat croissants and pain, they eat bacon and eggs
Typical wrong opinions.

>>20273267
>Yes, more civilised cultures avoid eating with their hands, because that's how you get parasites.
this is such ass backwards, it's like how muslims think they're advanced for wiping their ass with one hand and eating with the others. no, we invented more advanced hygienic methods, so an intermediary hygienic method does not indicate civilization anymore

>>20273273
>Reeeeeeeeeeee, not 100% of what Americans eat is eaten with hand... and sometimes others eat food with hands... so...
So you're idiot or a dishonest fuck who doesn't know the difference between a few and many.

>>20273277
Europeans invented both the cutlery we use today and methods to clean hands,
American got both for being a colony and use both sporadically.

>>20273154
The old "Ookie Cookie".

>>20273283
Fragile. Imagine making the claim that uniquely Americans don't eat with forks, which is clearly quite silly, then getting upset that Americans eat with hands and silverware about as often as other western and European people. Why does that bother so much? Why do you feel the need to make silly claims to differentiate yourself from Americans?

>>20273273
Just report and hide them. The board becomes almost usable without the 3 or so eurocels.

>>20273233
I suppose anyone who travels a lot has seen those people who are just a little too impressed with the hotel giving them a bagel and a glass of OJ.

>>20273228
>mfw

>>20273295
>Let me lie a bit more and say you claimed 100% of Americans eat with their bare hands... because...
Because this lie is the only way you can pretend you're not wrong.

>>20273296
>Just report anyone who claims Americans usually eat with their bare hands... this will sure make us look civilized.
No matter how many times you announce a ban to cope, reality is still here mate.

>>20273107
? this pic confuses me. Continental is just the proper, polite etiquette for eating. When you're home alone eating slop you eat like in the left pic unless you like continental better.

>>20273228
I usually don't unless the meal involves peas, the second knife is a fucking game changer for that

>>20273277
Muslims also practice ritual washing after using the bathroom, ritual washing before eating, fasting and never eating pork, all to avoid parasites. Cleanliness is a major feature of the religion.
But please do continue eating pork hotdogs with your dirty unwashed hands, kuffar. You're doing great! There's no evidence of parasites in the US general population. None whatsoever.

>>20273318
Being fair, I don't think eating slop require ones to use a knife, and often not even a fork.

>>20273320
You are wasting your time talking to these people, they'll be as dirty as possible, and still call other dirty because... "we are just better, ok?"

>>20273337
I use my kung fu chopsticks

>>20273354
>chopsticks
Quite a good and clean way to eat food, far better than bare handed without the custom to keep hands very clean like in the US.

>>20273362
>he's still going at it
Where did the Americans touch you with their dirty dirty hands?

>>20273107
I use pencils

Right way to eat? What are you gay? Just convey the food into your mouth

>>20273107

>not using hands to eat

>>20273107
>So what is the proper way to eat?
the way I do it.

>>20273320
>>20273337
he's an idea, what about having high health standards for meat, washing your hands with soap after leaving the bathroom, et voila, all these rituals are now pointless and backwards.

>>20273107
If it's something like a steak that requires using a knife every bite, "american style" is absolutely fucking retarded. I regularly switch the fork and knife between my hands, I don't care if that's considered rude lmao. If I don't need a knife that much, I'm not just going to leave it on my plate where it gets in the way.

Amerinental.

>>20273107
What the fuck does "continental" even mean in this context. How do you eat "continentally"?

>>20274254
It's an English expression for Europeans who live "on the Continent" as opposed to their islands

>>20274064
>what about having high health standards for meat, washing your hands with soap after leaving the bathroom, et voila,
You know the US standards for meat are very low, right?

>>20274254
European minus Anglos (semi-Europeans), it's the same as European proper.

>>20273185
you're supposed to hold the fork in your left and cut with your right, then keep the fork in your left hand to eat what you just cut

>>20274300
And halal standards for meat are very very high.

>>20273107
American style, I bring my own sauce

>>20273122
Where do you think the expression "first cum, first serve" is from?

i use two forks, or a spoon and my hand, depending on the food

>>20274459
Yes, same with Kosher, it's a pain in the ass to met standards.

>>20273129
It's historically American but now persists only in some rural areas that remain convinced that it's how the upper crust eat. The type of people who want their surname to sound a little European and still boast about ancestors arriving on the Mayflower.

>>20274783
So "old money".

>>20273150
Same here. Are you Left handed?

knife in left hand fork in right like a normal fucking person

>>20274912
right handed, started doing it because it felt retarded to keep switching utensils when eating "American style" so just kept the knife in my left

>>20273107
i just eat the fucking food, i don't think about how i am holding my utensils like a rich posh cunt. i don't go to fine dining places (they're a scam) or associate with wealthy wankers (they're annoying) so it doesn't matter.

>>20273107
I see Americans do this all the time.
They can't hold a fork with their left hand, so they pick up the knife, cut their food, put the knife down, pick up the fork, and then eat.
They look like toddlers failing to do a basic task. You have to wonder how they get so fat while not being able to even eat correctly.

>>20274941
So you're just chaotically switching between techniques so rapidly you can't even recall what you're doing after the fact. Possibly you're just pressing your face into the plate of food and biting away. You don't know. You can't remember.

>>20273107
I see Britons do this all the time.
They can't hold a fork with their left hand, so they pick up the knife, cut their food, put the knife down, pick up the fork, and then eat.
They look like toddlers failing to do a basic task. You have to wonder how they get so fat while not being able to even eat correctly.

>>20273107
Any time you have to butcher your meat at the table, you're dining with NO style.

>>20273163
What are they using, their hands?

>>20273107
Do europeans think they can cut into a steak with one hand while shoveling other food into their mouths with the other? This is such a bizarre image

>>20275051
Chewing too, ideally you'd just gulp down a whole steak like a viper swallowing a chicken egg

>>20273107
I just eat everything with my hands if I can.
I'll use a spoon for something like rise but otherwise, why bother with utensils?

>>20273107
>not cutting with your left and using the fork with your right
why switch?

>>20273147
>>20273129
no wonder the ""american"" style is so retarded

>>20273320
>>20273337
obvious samefag is obvious
first day on 4chan? better never come back then

>>20275060
no need for knife and for for eating good ol' greasy-ass burgers

>>20275014
>>20274973

>>20273129
>British
No it isn't you fucking retard. Foreigners literally making stuff up about us just so they can seethe at us

>>20274300
I'm not American

>>20273107
I eat like the right because I'm fat and want to eat fast. Now I'll call it "contine>>20273112
ntal." Thanks

>>20275690
Oops, fucked it up with my fat fingers

>>20273225
Say less

>>20275845
Say lavee

>>20273107
No one normal cares.

>>20273107
Neither, don’t use utensils

>>20274973
That’s because left handed people are the devil, Liam

>>20273320
You wipe your ass with your hand, Shabir

>>20274973
>I see Americans do this all the time.
No you don't
>They can't hold a fork with their left hand
Yes we can

>>20273107

place food into mouth
chew (optional)
swallow, like a whore
