Evidently, there's some kind of petty gamesmanship going on in this chopstick vs fork thing. It's pretty juvenile to base cultural superiority on eating utensils. The debate on the superior eating thing will rage on and on but if we want to be logical about this, it doesn't matter which is better. What is culturally superior is the ability to use either one with equal proficiency and slip seamlessly between cuisines of the East and West. What this means is that the Hawaiians pretty much got it all.

The whole point of a hot roast beef sandwich is that it's covered
in gravy.

Yesterday for lunch at the pub I had a roast beef sandwich. I asked
her to ask the chef to find slices in the middle where it was less
well done. I had two pieces of wholewheat bread, beef, tomato and
lettuce in it. It had been sliced in half diagonally. Very tasty, I
picked it up and made sure I was over the plate - in case lol It was
rather like having a hamburger.

It really came with fries but I asked her to hold the fries as I knew
I couldn't manage it all and sandwiches do not make good doggy bags.
It was all I ate yesterday, when suppertime came, just couldn't eat
anything so didn't bother.

Mine was hot, as in newly toasted, but ack I loathe gravy over it so
ordered without that. You're right though, that's the meaning of a
hot sandwich here.

yes, but that would be akin to saying you can't eat sushi with
chopsticks because an 10 oz chunk of fish is "sushi".

Cindy...I've never posted here trying to change anyones opinion. I'm
just saying my opinion. I don't claim to be right or wrong...just my
view. I think chopsticks are silly for eating when we now have forks but
I don't.....uh well ok, I do laugh about it. But that's only me. Until
I get elected God, everyone feel free to eat as you want to.

No need to get offended by my opinion.

I don't do raw seafood or use a pair of twigs to eat any of my meals.

Here's a thought.... if you serve a meal for eating with chopsticks, it
might be cool to put a pair of drum sticks (musical drumsticks, not
chicken ones) into the serving bowls? yes...no?

I'm not offended. You still haven't convinced me that forks are inherently
better. It's all down to what you're used to, and to a certain extent, how
versatile you want to be. I'm never faced with "Please bring me a fork,
I can't use chopsticks."

I can't fathom why you care whether gaijin use hashi. If I get
chopsticks with my Chinese carryout, why not use them? They're
right there, and I don't have to go rustle up a fork.

Too big and clumsy. Look at how drumsticks are held versus chopsticks.

I have never seen something covered with two pieces of bread and covered
with gravy. What a monstrosity.

I often get chinese takeout and I never consider chopsticks for eating
it, even if they include them. I bring it home and get out the spoon and
fork. To "rustle up a fork" takes me like 5 seconds. eheh Another 5
seconds to throw the chopsticks in my drawer.

I just find it funny and odd that Usains seem to only eat with
chopsticks when eating chinese or japanese food. I'd never consider
eating my hamburger with chopsticks. Fries would work though...you can
spear them with one chopstick.

Look at how a fork is held versus chopsticks. lol
I'm just teasing at this point. I'm serious about the utensils but it's
funny to argue occasionally. It keeps the group going. I have no
problem with people thinking it's suave to eat with sticks. Just not my
thing.

That's not true, a hot roast beef sandwich can be served without
gravy.

>Then is it really a sandwich?

Depends whether open faced or not.... an open faced sandwich requires
a knife and fork whether there's gravy or not. However I've had
closed roast beef sandwiches with gravy that are picked up and eaten
same as any regular sandwhich. Then there are French dips, that are
constantly dipped in gravy as one eats. Nowadays the "wrap" has
become in vogue, the fillings all rolled in a wheat tortilla, some
hot, some cold, some dipped, some not.

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.

Typically a roast beef sandwhich with gravy would be open faced, one
slice of bread... but one can have a roast beef sandwich with gravy
between two slices of bread only not nearly so much gravy. Sometimes
I'll have a cold roast beef sandwhich with gravy with two slices of
bread, but the gravy is Heinz red blended with soy sauce.

I have that type of sandwhich very often, only not as much gravy as an
open face sandwhich. My favorite open faced hot sandwhich with gravy
is meat loaf.

You must go to some pretty chintzy diners:

Whenever I used to make hot pork or hot beef sandwiches, I always used two
slices of bread. No monstrosity at all, any more than a couple of pieces of
french toast with syrup are monstrosities.

A simple way to comprehend is that eating utensils depend on one's
culture and a whole lot more people on this planet use chopsticks than
forks. Actually a lot more people eat with their fingers than forks
too (no utensils)... forks are way in the minority. At home I eat
most meals from a bowl with a spoon... I just finished a big bowlful
of tomato, cukes, and onion salad w/Wishbone Italian, eaten with a
spoon... everything cut small; diced cukes, diced onion, and quarterd
cherry tomatoes... thought of adding diced celery and bell peppers too
but there was no more room in my two qt bowl. Sometimes the only
utensil I need for dinner is a large glass. We can thank the Brits
for dining with knives and forks at table... most cultures look down
at dining with knives and forks at table, those are considered
weapons.

Most children eat with their fingers, as a sign of attaining adulthood
one begins to use chop sticks, chop sticks are really extensions of
ones fingers. I've never eaten french fries with utensils, I've
always used my fingers... first time I ate french fries they were from
a deli, served in a small brown paper bag.

I would say you are the one going to chintzy diners:



Price range
Under $10

Service is average. Tables, plates and silverware are quite dirty. The
food portion was really small. The poached egg was perfectly done.
However,due to the uncleanliness of the restaurant, it's not healthy for
one to eat in there. Tried it first time and won't be back.

Oh, I don't go to the one that I linked to. It was the first one I found
that had a good picture of a hot roast beef sandwich with gravy.

I love those sandwiches. Especially if they dump the mashed potatoes on top and put gravy on top of that. I may like that even more than a loco moco. Hoo boy!

Bullet conservation is not a big concern in that movie. I love that movie though. Who wouldn't love a movie with Japanese, Mexican, and American, mobsters in a turf war? In the end the Japanese get wiped out by the Italians. That's the breaks.

Not only hot roast beef sandwiches (roast beef, sliced, in white bread, then
cut catty-corner, separated on the plate, a dipper of mashed potatoes between
the two sandwich halves and then roast beef gravy poured over it all)......but
The Croque Monsieur and Croque Mademoiselle also. These are not usually
eaten with the hands. There is also the Kentucky Hot Brown, but I don't know
what that is, exactly. all of these too messy to eat with the hands.

You're the racist to have made that comment... crawl back into your
white trailer trash hole... in fact you don't even own a trailor. you
own nothing, you live in some crumby slummy ghetto basement apt... and
you live on drive-thru fast food because you're too obeasety to get
out of your truck and let any one see your fat assed bod. No one here
has ever seen anything you've cooked, you're a fraud, a fake, and a
major LIAR. This Lucretia **** hasn't posted one honest word yet...
she's a low life troll... IF it's even a she.
