Chopsticks or Fork/Spoon? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 94/100. kaka135 (2891)3 years ago

Do you use chopsticks? If you do, do you prefer to use chopsticks or fork and spoon? Why?I've a discussion with a friend on this, I prefer to use chopsticks as I think it's easier to pick up food, except for those rounded and soft items, such as tofu` fish balls. Especially when I'm eating noodles, I think using chopsticks is easier. Well, and also I can just use one hand to eat, instead of using both hands for spoon and fork. Using chopsticks, I can pick up exactly what I want to pick up. Although I use fork/spoon as well, I use chopsticks more often.
My friend thinks using fork and spoon is easier.
How about you? Which is your preference?

I use a spoon and fork, even for noodles and such...just because it's easier to cut how much i want to eat. Also sometimes i use my hands, simply because i'm filipino, and we like to use our hands to eat=).

I actually eat both. Whenever I eat chinese or japaneese food I use chopsticks. Any other kind of food I use forks/spoons. I think it is easier to use forks/spoons. Using chopsticks takes work and practice. As for forks/spoons, you just pick them up and use them. There is no need to really practice unless you are a very young child using a spoon/fork for the first time.

It's all in the way your raised....In the US we were taught to eat with knives, fork, and spoon, where in asia you learn to mange the chop sticks, That is a art I've never been able to do because I can't walk down the street and chew gum at the same time........I think it's great to see people being able to pick up one grain of rice with a chop stick....But I even have trouble getting a fork to my mouth.........

I prefer using spoon and fork. With chopsticks, I tend to drop my food before it reaches my plate or mouth. I have yet to manage eating rice with a chopstick.

chopsticks are fun. I like to show off my hand/eye coordination. But when I'm hungry, I want to EAT. So I will usually use a fork or spoon.
