We have family cook outs countless times throughout the summer. We have a few family members who are convinced they are the only ones who know social etiquette. We're out-fucking-side, nimwits. Eating with your hands is 100% acceptable. Yet they act like pretentious dolts commonly found posting on /ck/ berating them for being classless red necks.

My biggest pet peeve when it comes to food is Asians. All of them it seems and I've met many seeing as I live in Vancouver have very bad table manners.

My current manager is a women from Taiwan. She's in her late 30's and has a masters degree, seems pretty intelligent. And then when she's eating lunch she'll talk with her whole mouth full. And by that I mean like completely full to the point where you can barely understand what she's trying to say.

Other fine examples of Asians eating including slurping dishes that you shouldn't be slurping(yes I know all about eating soba noodles), eating rice so quick that it flies all over the place, the concept of double or quadruple dipping doesn't seem to exist in that part of the world either, saliva everywhurr.

I have a "friend" at school that is a "celiac raw vegan"..... Oh I know, i know. She always brings food she makes and eagerly wants me to taste her concoctions. I'm not a picky eater and Im quite adventurous when it comes to food so I can appreciate her "cooking" for what it is. Such as raw vegan celiac pizza... Deffinately not close to being good as regular pizza but for it was still good considering the ingredient limitations. HOWEVER......

>Naming every fucking ingredient, how it was utilized, the vitamins and minerals in each fucking ingredient and how your body is benefiting from everything.

For fuck sakes bitch I know what nutritional yeast and Spirulina are. Look into my small Asian eyes, I obviously know what nori, edimame, young coconut and sriracha are. Please shut the fuck up.

You can do as you like, and your family be damned for telling you different, but I personally prefer to eat ribs with utensils. It's not that I don't enjoy eating them with my hands at home, or in a casual environment, but I always feel so messy afterward and I hate feeling like that if I'm still going to be out and about after the meal.

I live in Vancouver myself and I've seen many white people talk with their mouth full.

The double-dipping is unsettling though. The only way I could possibly show some lenience is if they dip a side that hasn't been touched by a mouth.

One thing that I do notice with many Asians is that they put their elbows on the table. But that one's not so bad since it's such an antiquated rule.

In the countless sushi etiquette threads I've been in, there was always one side that would say "Who gives a shit, it's not like we follow etiquette for any other food."

What I'm trying to say is, if there was a proper way of eating another kind of food, I would fucking follow it. And just because many foods lack some form of governing doesn't mean it justifies intentionally making an ass out of yourself with sushi.

Once again, I am not gonna start another sushi debate. There is proper etiquette, and following it would be preferred. Other foods not having etiquette does not mean you can throw out existing etiquette for the applicable food. If other food had some form of etiquette, I would be willing to learn and practice it.

That's it and that's all.
