It's fairly obvious if a piece of sushi should be approached by the fingers
or hashi. Mostly, I use hashi because I'm a neat and clean kind of guy. What
I won't do is shove a whole god-damned piece in my mouth like the Japanese
insist on doing. Such savagery! However, on the rare occasion that a sushi
is so structurally unsound or precariously constructed as to make biting in
half a losing proposition, I will plug it into my gaping maul straightaways.
It is not a very pleasant experience, let me tell you!
