I'm just going to assume that almost all of you people use them when you are in an Asian restaurant, but why? Why do you eat food one way one day but use different utensils the next day just because of where you are eating?

Depends where I’m eating and who I’m eating with.

Chinese fast food with 2 item combo is getting eaten with a fork, nice restaurant I’m probably going to use chopsticks.

My buddies and I, probably a fork (with some of them the fork is an upgrade). A date I’m using a chopstick.

None of these answers makes any sense to me. Unless a fork is not an option, why wouldn't you go with that. Or, if you prefer chopsticks, why wouldn't you ask for those when you are at any restaurant?

As I assumed, nobody answered the question except perhaps "when in Rome". Why is the fucking question! Why not use one or the other? Why does where you eat matter?

And to the dumbfuck that mentioned ice cream. Great analogy you idiot. So you eat ice cream with chopsticks?

I should know better than to ask this bunch.

i don't use chopsticks. i use a fork for everything else so it makes no sense to use chopsticks.
its easier to eat with a fork.
i guess people who aren't asian feel more cultured or worldly if they use chopsticks.
what's worse is people who buy asian take out and use chopsticks at home. they won't use chopsticks to eat italian but pull them out only to eat asian food.
piss off hipster douche.

Upper
Just hold both of them together as you would a pencil. Hold the bottom one still with your thumb and lift the top one in between your index and middle fingers. Then pinch the food between the chop sticks. It will become 2nd nature after you get used to it. I could come over and show you and you will have it down

Finally, a fucking answer. I don't eat sushi, so thank you for that response so at least I understand.

Now on the other hand I never said anything about why western eating utensils were better so fuck off. I only asked why you would switch.

So again, if you aren't eating sushi, why use chop sticks? Lots of people said they would use them for some stupid fucking reasons. I asked someone one time and they said "because its fun". WTF?

Asians believe that forks and knives belong in the kitchen with the chef. Most Asian food is bite size portions that you can pick up with chopsticks without the need to use a knife or fork. is that good enough of a fucking answer ?
