I hate using fork or knife to have egg-bread or pizza. I have to use my hands otherwise i feel as if am doing some kind of an operation. As far as having rice or soup or whatever, i like to use a spoon/fork. What about you, what do you use to have food?

Hi Karjyo, we usually use fork and spoon, but if we are eating noodles at the stores, or in restaurants, then we'd use chopsticks.

If we are taking KFC or pizza, we'd prefer to use our hands (finger lickin' good!) happy

I've seen some use knife and fork to eat pizza,i have nothing against though. For me it depends on the food i'll be eating.Now if it is fried chicken, spring rolls, pizza, donuts, canape--basically any food hand picked,of course i eat it using my hand.Spaghetti, noodles,salads i use fork.And definitely spoon for soups and rice.
Did you know that Filipinos would love to eat using their hand?I missed that one also.Of course we wash our hand before eatinglollol

Most of the time, I eat rice with the use of a spoon; at home or outside the house. During weekdays when I do have to go to the workplace, I eat rice and viand for breakfast using a spoon. I also bring along with me 'baon' consisting of rice and viand which I eat during lunch time in the company premises using a spoon.
There are times when I do eat rice with my bare hands specially during certain occasions with the family and when the foods served are more easily eaten using the hands, like pizza, as you mentioned.
For instance, if we have an occasion which we have to celebrate by the seaside, we would usually have fishes, shrimps, and crabs. Normally, these are 'hand-foods', if you know what I mean.
Sometimes at home, my husband and I do eat with our hands because we feel that the food is tastier this way. Other locals also feel this way but I guess this is quite psychological.
If I'm not mistaken, there was one instance where I ate with my hands in the office. It was a couple of years ago when we had our company's anniversary celebration and we had a 'boodle' fight. But it's very rare that we eat with fork and knife at the same time while eating.

most of the times i eat with chopsticks. for pizza and bread i'll use my hands. certain things like pasta are eaten with fork and spoon. i don't have any particular preference about utensils. i'll just use whatever is available to me. more important is that it's not those disposable type. cheers;p

The only time i used a knife and for for pizza is when i am out and the slice is super hot and i don't want to make an idiot of myself trying to hold it with my hands and doing some sort of juggling routine lol... other than that i agree feels like some sort of operation being done to the food! As soon as it cools down enough to hold the knife and fork get chucked=P

As for soup the only time i DIDN'T use a spoon was when i went to Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament lol there you don't HAVE the option of using utensils=P. I quickly got discouraged and didn't touch the soup... who knows if they even wash the bowls properly!!

But yeah in general fast foods like sandwiches, pizza, fries and so on no utensils, but other foods yup.

i usually use chopsticks for most of my meals. bread and pizza will be using my hands. only food like spaghetti and slabs of meat will see me wielding fork and knife. also, if my rice is served on a plate, i'll use a fork and spoon.

let you in on one little secret - i use chopsticks to eat spaghetti if i'm at home. lollol

Hi karjyo, when having meal at home I use a spoon only. The 3 meals we usually take at home are mostly rice and vegetable, so a single spoon is just enough for me. I use both the fork and spoon when taking fish, for it’s much more convenient to take care of the bones. I would like to eat noodle with a pair of chopsticks, for spoon and fork couldn’t serve their purpose well when come to take these long strip stuffs.

While taking food outside, like in the restaurants, food courts or street stalls I feel happy to use whatever tableware that supplied together with the food served. I would like to ask for what I need, if I find it is really inconvenient to use the one given.

I enjoy eating with my hand as well when visiting some of the local Indian restaurants here, where the delicious food is served on a big banana leaf instead of a plate.

happy posting and Merry Christmas!
