Can you dumbfuck shut-ins even use chopsticks?

You'd be surprised. I even know some Asians who can't (they all happen to be Filipinos though. The Worst Asians™).

I usually don't bother unless I have to.

Chopsticks are an incredibly ineffective eating tool when compared to the spoon and fork. I know they obsess about preserving their cultural habits, but you should be able to compromise on obvious things.

Chopsticks are superior when it comes to eating certain things, as it avoids the stabbing motion of the fork, thereby allowing you to consume the food in its pure form instead of a damaged one.

Food is a often an animal that has been killed, proccessed, coated with seasonings, and then cooked.

When you chew food you crush it and mix it with saliva as the start to digestion, stabbed with a fork in no way hinders food experience.

>> No.3358560

I only use forks because I moved to america, and forks are easier.

>> No.3358574

I don't have to like Japan to like their anime.

I can kind of use chopsticks...slowly. I can never persist because I get too hungry trying to get a good grip on my food.

>> No.3358580

>>3358556

Yes it does. I can certainly tell the difference between a piece of food with holes in it and one that's undamaged. Yes, I'm going to chew it, but the initial experience is better.

>> No.3358600

I hear that ice cream critics eat it with a fork because the spoon makes it taste too metallic. Maybe chopsticks work in the same way for some things? They're still pretty annoying though.

>> No.3358618

>They're still pretty annoying though.

How so? Are you really so uncoordinated that you can't use them with ease?

>> No.3358627

>>3358618
No, it's not that much of a problem, but I'm studying here right now and eating with them at every meal has given me hand cramps.

>> No.3358630

>>3358600

Wouldn't a fork also taste metallic? Or at the very least, more metallic than say, a plastic spoon?

>> No.3358641

>>3358630

Less metal would be touching the ice cream with a fork (it'd be supported on the prongs, but also spaces of air). And I don't think plastic conducts temperature well enough (so it wouldn't get cold).

>> No.3358651

>>3358627
It gets easier and less painful the more you do it. Although, if you are getting hand cramps it may be your form that's the problem.

Also, chopsticks definitely have the advantage when it comes to certain foods, such as noodles (especially in soup). And eating rice with chopsticks is a lot quicker and easier than what you white people think.

>> No.3358648

>>3358630
Yes, but it's not as bad as a spoon, which rubs nothing but metal against your tongue before the ice cream even touches it. The slits in the fork allow flavor to seep through right at the onset of consumption.

>> No.3358653

>>3358641

True. It's weird to think of people taking ice cream that seriously, like wine or a cigar.
