Chopsticks

[ElegantAura]

Chopsticks, do you use them regularly, or only when enjoying cuisines like Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.?

Japanese chopsticks are shorter with pointed tips, making them perfect for tasks like picking out fish bones.
Chinese chopsticks are longer and thicker, ideal for serving and sharing food at the table.
Korean chopsticks stand out because they’re flat and made of metal, great for handling hot or spicy dishes, without absorbing heat.

How good are you with chopsticks?

Never tried using chopsticks. I'd use my fingers instead, but forks and spoons for me.

I'm pretty good. One of my mom's old boyfriends taught me how to use them when I was maybe 9 or 10 and I Just kept practicing and using them and so they're pretty easy for me to handle. Although I will often use a spoon for things like rice unless it's sticky.

I've never used chopsticks before. Growing up, we didn't eat Chinese food or anything "exotic". If we did, we had forks. I'm extremely OCD about food gunk getting on my mouse and keyboard, so with finger foods I often use a fork. Well, I bought a pair of chopsticks thinking it might be easier. Even after watching a really good video, I don't understand how the hell you use them. 😂

@Doc Nova the more you use chopsticks, the easier it gets.

I’m pretty average with chopsticks, not great, but not bad either.
I only use them when eating Asian cuisine and find them easy enough to handle.
The only slight challenge for me is soupy noodles, but everything else is no problem.

I was wanting to use them as much as I use a fork. If I'm eating potato chips, use chopsticks. Especially Doritos, my keyboard needs to say clean.

Only when we eat in a nice Asian restaurant will we use chopsticks. I'm pretty good with them but I don't like the feel of some of them.
