Can you use CHOPSTICKS

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

I am indeed a choppo mental,, really should learn to use them, it is PURE laziness izzunit.

Same here as well...

 

[folkestonesgull]

i can get by, slows the meal down a bit which is quite nice!

 

[Garage_Doors]

Never eaten Chinese so not reason to try. was offered them though when in china, but declined for fear of making an idiot of myself.

 

[Father Jack]

yes - they are well easy to use innit.

 

[Lush]

Would it help if I said that blokes who can use chopsticks are way more attractive than blokes who just shovel it in?

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Two years in Borneo as a kid made me quite proficient.

I can use chopsticks in a kind of cack-handed way, but I still think they're RUBBISH.
I like to have a couple of items of food from my plate to ram in my gob at the same time, but I find it almost impossible with chopsticks to do that. I have to go:

Bit of rice...got it *munch, swallow*
Bit of chicken....got it *munch, swallow*
Few beansprouts...come here ya bastard...shit, dropped it....gotcha *munch, swallow*

Whereas with a FORK, I can STAB my bit of chicken, SKEWER a few beanspouts and SHOVEL some rice onto the flat bit of the fork, then just SCOFF.

Chinese are WAY behind westerners when it comes to cutlery. Chopsticks were actually designed as a method of torture for starving POW's in labour camps. Thats FACT, that is.

You've never eaten chinese ?

That is astounding

 

[Skint Gull]

You've never eaten chinese ?

That is astounding

Indeed, that's what i thought. What the hell did you eat then, and why were you even in China?

 

[Mendoza]

You've never eaten chinese ?

That is astounding

especially as he has been to CHINA?

 

[Bozza]

Never eaten Chinese so not reason to try.

What about Japanese, Vietnamese or even Thai?

 

[CHAPPERS]

Just about, though it's a hard art to master.

On Business, they prepared other meat dishes for me.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I can use them but compared to the natives I come out a very distant second. I've always thought my chopstick skills were pretty poor but if the replies on this thread are anything to go by I'm doing alright for a western devil.

 

[Garage_Doors]

Nope, never seen the appeal, but then i have never been a "food person".
I know i lot of people get pleasure from eating, but i don't, for me i eat to keep alive, in the same way you put fuel in a car to make it run.

 

[Amsterdam Albion]

I like using chopsticks, like someone else said it helps to slow down the eating process - unless you resort to shovel mode of course!

This brings to mind your PLEBBY taste in pizzas Easy 10

I'm well good with chopsticks me.

Eating things like salad with a knife and fork is just stupid. Then again I wouldn't attempt a roast with chopsticks.

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

Using chopsticks is a piece of piss. I even catch flies like that Miyagi bloke.

 

[csider]

First time at a Chinese with my Dad as a kid he said you have to use them with a bowl or you cant eat any food. Never eaten Chink or Jap food any other way............

Understand what he means about eating simple food, but to never have eaten Chinese food.......That is well mental.

 

[ben andrews' girlfriend]

I well want Chinese now!
