I HATE silverware! I love eating with plastic forks or spoons! I hate the way silverware feels in my mouth! I hate the noise it makes if it hits against my teeth! I hate the way it sounds against other people's teeth! I hate when people bite down on their forks when they're eating! I hate the noise silverware makes on plates! I hate everything about them! I wish they were never made and I absolutely love plastic forks and spoons!!

So you mean when you eat in restaurants you request for a plastic utensil? I use silverware because if I use plastic they are so small plus they break easily. But what I like about plastic is that their disposable unlike the silverware wherein you have to wash and reuse it.

No, I don't ask for plastic forks or spoons at restaurants, my question was "which do you prefer?" so my answer reflects the question of which I prefer!

For me it depends on the material the other equipement is made of. Some of those new metals you have to use plastic. However I do prefer metals

I hate plastic utensils! They are always braking when I try to cut with the knife. Silverware utensils are strong, and things like that won't happen to you if you will use them.

I use silverware, in most of he time. I do not have any problem wih them. They are easy to use. I have heard that plastic is not good for health, as they are mixed up wih chemicals.

i feel more comfortable and much convenience with silverwares than of plastics that will usually broke when we use it with much force specially when we have steaks and barbeques. then noise it produce will only depends on the person holding it that makes a loud sound with plates or even with your teeth.

Good day to you! In my case, I prefer to use silverware for my utensils. I feel much comfortable with it. I do enjoy eating my food when I use them with me. Plasticware are sticky to hands whenever we have oily foods. Or it easily break when use with hard dishes such as the fried one.

if it was silver it would be good as silver is good for you, problem is we dont really get silver cutlery anymore here. i prefer todays metal to plastic or wood although i dont like the feel of some cheaper forks in my mouth. i also like using the ceramic spoons and bowls. in thailand i went to an exhibition and brought home a degradable spoon which i used for ages i think it was made of rice that felt good to eat with. i think i still have it somewhere.
