Eating With Chopsticks

Once a week I buy Chinese Take-aways but always use a fork as my tool of choice.

Was wondering if it would taste any better if I used chopsticks instead?

Hi my forest Fairy... Hope your Sunday is Picture Perfect one too with your Grand Daughter.. Chopsticks seem to rule..rolling on the floor laughing
Always a good laugh to invite friends round for dinner & give them all chopsticks laugh mind it could take some time if you're serving steak & chips, with peas uh oh laugh rolling on the floor laughing beer
@ Luke...ai... I keep trying to catch flies with my chopsticks but without success....I guess I'm not using the right kind of tools...perhaps I should try other methods dunno confused
Using chopsticks involves over 30 joints and 50 muscles in the fingers, wrist, arm, shoulder as well as thousands of nerves.
rolling on the floor laughing Zmanhandshake ,,, I can only imagine the fun after some wine..rolling on the floor laughing
Kitty, I was thinkin of employin a teacher.. ??laugh
Friends of mine did that some years ago, not with steak of course but they thought it would be hilarious to see me eat with chopsticks, they forgot that after years of working with my hands rather than my brain I don't even have to think about how to use them, it's automatic laugh rolling on the floor laughing
@ Zman,, True, to some it just comes naturally. I still have a tough time sometimes,, depends who is watchingrolling on the floor laughing
It took me long enough to learn to eat with a knife and fork so think I shall leave eating with sticks to the professionals.
it is true, eating chinese food using chopsticks will taste different... I am using chopsticks. it's nice, even for rice.
I use only a knife to eat, even when only soup is on the menu ...professor
rolling on the floor laughing Well said ek,,, you got me rolling..thumbs up rolling on the floor laughing
SSAAlaugh As I told Kitty I might need a teacherdunno laugh
Geeez Dedo, somehow that defies all laws...rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
Lukeon, considering that I cannot send you a private message I'll have to do it here. Lunch time has come and gone, so would you have like to have some coffee with me today? Sorry no Chinese.
Hi luke
hope you are keeping well ? hug

Nah ... I can't use chopsticks --the food would be well cold -i'd have to use a fork --plus the floor would be covered with rice if I didn't :-( laugh
But I have heard before ,that Chinese food does actually taste better when using chopsticks thumbs up

@Luke...gosh considering all those muscles and nerves involved when eating with chopsticks...I think you would need a physical trainer never mind a teacher,....rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing
rolling on the floor laughing Kitty yes no one san say i dont work out at least once a week. laugh

Hows this:

There are four main styles:

The Chinese use a longer style than other countries, wood sets that come to a rounded or blunt end.
The Japanese use short, wooden sticks that come to a sharper pointy end.
The Koreans use shorter, metallic, wood or plastic sticks that are often blunt at the end.
The Vietnamese also use longer sticks that also come to a blunted end as in China; often wooden, but can be made of plastic as well.
Well now luken NOW I know why I have nerves of steel and such a vice like griprolling on the floor laughing
No fun aside I went to China for touring hol couple years back and ALL the food we ate was Chinese and with the chop sticks.grin
I learnt real quick or I would have gone hungrylaugh
Anyway after that experience I could not eat Chinese takeaway it is not the right stuff.
Yes if I want Chinese meal again the bus fare will cost a bitgrin reckon I will go hungry thenpeace

Tastes much better with chopsticks, you get and feel the experience. If you buy chinese, you use chopsticks.
If you buy pap and vorse, you use a fork.
