I don't mind eating with chop sticks, in fact I'd often ask for them
at Chinese restaurants... some times they'd ask if I'm sure as though
a round eyes wouldn't know how but they are very suprised to see how
defty I can handle chop sticks. What I don't much care for are those
Chinese soup spoons, I think they are pretentious, allows one to
slurp... If they want to slurp just pick up the bowl and have at it...
hypocritical as well because the Chinese pick up the bowl and shovel
in rice with chop sticks.
