Chopsticks, or Silverware?

[Neron]

I thought British food was supposed to suck?

I cried aloud with mirth and merriment...it dose...
Trust Me...Taste Like Eating a Sun Dried Pice Of You know What..

Ive tried to use chopsticks and the food usually ends up on the table or on my clothes instead of in my mouth! I prefer silverware, been using it all my life.

What British food have you been eating? British fish and chips are the best, British food is great IMO.

I assure you, British fish and chips are vastly inferior to those found overseas. I've had fish and chips in many places around the UK and it's not good. Try going to NZ and having fish and chips - then you'll know what 'good' is. The fish and the minced beef are the two worst foods in the UK when compared with that of overseas. Still, I guess if you've never had good fish and chips overseas then you wouldn't know any better, so I can't blame you for thinking it.

Well, about the hands for the knife and fork...everyone else in my family uses the left hand for the knife, and right hand for the fork.

EDIT: Damn right BoB, our fish and chips are fantastic.

I dont go to other countires to eat food that I can get back here in the UK. IMO it just seems pointless.

Since I rarely use chopsticks, I find them to be rather difficult to eat with, but I do try to use them if I'm in a Chinese restaurant. At home I always use a fork.

If You Guys Want to Know What "Good" Is.."Prime Rid w/ Garlic Cooked into it" Is Good...Its So Juicy And Yummy ..It Waters In ones Mouth...Not some Silly Fish And Chips.. lol . Prime Rib FTW!

The only reason chopsticks were invented was because there wasn't enough metal to go around as all the metal needed to be used to make weapons and armour to see off invading Mongolians. But last time I checked not only had metallurgy spread across the civilised world, but the Mongolians had all but stopped any pillaging. Ergo chopsticks are now superfluous. So get with the times people!

Actually, they were invented to stir stews and stuff, and then grew into chopsticks to eat with.

Ah, but you can get fish and chips everywhere in the world, as with many other foods. The key is to find out what it's like in that country - trust me on this. Just because it's called the same thing and might even seem to be cooked the same, and even look the same, does not mean that it tastes the same. Something as simple as chicken tastes better in Germany than anywhere else I've tasted it, by a very, very long way. To taste that chicken I had in Germany was to taste one of the most beautiful flavours I've experienced in my life, despite the fact I've had chicken on a weekly (at a guess) basis all my life. Likewise, fish in New Zealand is incredible, and I would guess that Chinese food tastes best in China and sushi is most likely best made in Japan. But who knows? Maybe the best sushi is made in a small shop in Denmark. You never know unless you try it.

When it comes to fish, though... you really need to open your mind. The fish you buy in one country is like a completely different food to the fish you might buy in another.

I just use a fork for stuff, I use a knife sometimes but I cannot hold either "correctly" same with pens.

[Mercen-X]

Chopsticks are fun!!!!!!!!!

I've never heard Silverware. How does it go?

[Shoden]

I cannot remember who did it, it's an old sig. How the hell do you hold chopsticks anyway?
