Heh, very educational so I gave it a try…ye Gods it works!
Managed to pick up a peanut (Planters, the big uns) but as yet my attempts to pick up more than one are proving less of a success. Practice will be the order of the day.
Cor mate you do sound ever so posh. The cat is a cute little rascal
That is a total crack up - thanks for the laugh.
Now can you please read me “Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy” - all four books in your wicked accent?
I find chopsticks are easier for certain things, like sushi, some kinds of dim sum, or cooking in a hot pot. Hell, eating out of a Chinese takeout box is easier with chopsticks, because forks are too short. Also, sometimes I eat Doritos with chopsticks when I’m at the computer so I don’t gunk up the keyboard. Try doing that with another utensil.
That´s actually a very good idea, let´s all pretend that I came up with it in the first place!.. no? :dubious:
A spoon?
One thing that I haven’t noticed in this thread yet, but is worth mentioning:
IF YOU ARE LEFT HANDED:
The good news is that there is no real cultural taboo against using the things in your left hand - at least not in the (Sino-)Vietnamese culture I’m used to (but I can’t speak for Korea, Japan, etc…). Go to a Vietnamese restaurant, and you’ll see a person here and a person there eating happily with the left hand. And that’s fine, but…
THE BAD NEWS is that you really, really need to remember when taking your seat to either sit next to a fellow left hander, or sit at the left edge of the table.
If you don’t, it’s fencing practice all night.
This is why I love the Dope.
ETA: I love Cookie Monster!
