When I was a kid I remember how fun it could be eating using my hands. But my parents make sure that I washed my hands properly before putting any food into my mouth. When I grown up, I know the difference and still love to eat sometimes using my hands since there are some native restaurants where it's best to eat using hands.
When I am at home, and don't do anything I use my hands on eating. How about you, do you used your hands on eating foods?

Oh, yeah me either when it comes to french fries, pizza and burger I used my hand to eat. I think there's is nothing wrong using our hands as long as washed it thoroughly. Using hands the food taste great and more real.

Oh, that's wonderful, I know how fun it is to eat using our hands. Even though I like using my hands on eating but still I prefer to eat using spoon and fork especially when I'm at work.

Hi
I use my hands everytime when I eat, Without using my hands I cant eat...
In my place only in few restorents few people use forks but most of us use hands to eat. Yes we have to make sure that our hands should be clean.

When I'm going eating dried fish I like to use my hand because it is very convenient to eat than using utensils. As a Filipino I think eating by our hands is in our tradition. I think it is best to eat on banana leaves using your hands. In the province we used to eat on banana leaves in the rice field I remember my vacation there.

yeah sure, i use my hands for eating, as it is a custom in our part of the world. everyone eats their food with their hands, but nowadays with the advent of westernisation lots of eateries have started promoting the use of spoon and fork and some people have started using it at home too. I have been using my hands for eating since childhood, so i think i'll stick with it for the moment.

I have a terrible habit of ripping my food up into little pieces when I eat, so I'm always touching my food with my hands. It looks really unprofessional, and I will need to learn to curb the habit, but I'm only in high school right now. I've got time to perfect my eating ways. Besides, it's a lot more fun when you play with your food!
