tonado Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Do you use chopsticks? My wife and I use fork for eating. http://www.infoplease.com/spot/chopsticks1.html Link to comment
Dan R Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 I've used chopsticks since I was 5 years old. I use them at home more often than fork and knife. When my SO comes here she can use what she likes as I have plenty of both. Link to comment
david_dawei Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 I've used them for years. I often cook some chinese lettuce and rice, etc... I taught myself three different 'holds' of the sticks to get me through any situation... actually, I watched a few Asians eating a few years ago and noticed the difference ways, so taught myself them. Needless to say, I got many comments about my dexterity of the sticks in China... although a few times, Zixuan had to rescue me... just made me practice more ! Link to comment
C4Racer Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 I've used them for a long time also. My wife has been here a total of seven weeks. We have used a fork three times. Once when were taken to an American dinner by my sister and brother-in-law, another at a car club gathering and last night I made her an American omlette. Other than that we use chopsticks. except if it's soup then we have the Chinese style spoons in the house. Link to comment

Dan R Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 I definitely agree chopsticks and the Chinese spoon are all you need once you are use to it. Chopsticks make it very easy to remove bones from fish and slurp noodles. Link to comment

Ever eat those really small guys (or girls, don't mean to be sexist in my carnivorous ways)... The bones are so small, I'm more hungry after attempting to sort the bones from meat in my mouth !

If you do it right any bone too small to get is safe to eat. Link to comment
david_dawei Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 If you do it right any bone too small to get is safe to eat. I was told that.. I saw Zixuan with practically no pile of bones and I was sifting through my mouth like the goldrush in California... Link to comment

It seems to cause Trigg to disappear to water his flock. Ooops ..... hope that doesn't cause this thread to degenerate towards the LL. I just meant that it reminds him they need care. Yuh that's it.
