Chopsticks?

Chopsticks!

I'm not skilled or anything but I can make food go in my mouth without skeweringt it.

For the luls:

@HerbieBug said:

I have made an attempt on the potato chip experiment just now.

Chip style: corn chip, seasoned, triangular shape

Container: chip bag

Chopsticks: lacquered wood, 7" length, fairly severe point taper

impressions: it takes some getting used to, and would be easier with a wider chip style like a potato ripple type, or a puffy kettle style. The tapered points of my chopsticks made grabbing the thin corn chips to be a bit challenging but still workable. A thicker restaurant style chopstick would be a better tool for this. Once I got used to it, it's just as easy as fingers. More tidy. Rather dignified. A little tricky to do without having to look into the bag to aim, though. :D

This is some great stuff! You should turn this into a weekly blog!

Only if it's those beginner ones with the springs on the top essentially making them very thin tongs.

Whenever we eat Asian food my older brother insists on using chopsticks, and to me he seems like an asshole every time. That might have less to do with the chopsticks, and more to do with my brother being an asshole, but still.

Depends what I'm eating. I'm experienced with them, being I learned to use them at the same time as other eating utensils.

I use them sometimes, for stuff like ramen... and popcorn. Why? I don't know, it's fun and different.

I love chopsticks! And as others have mentioned they can be very versatile in preventing your hands from getting dirty with chips -- I do that when I'm on the computer and it's the best.

I have an idea for a chip/popcorn/seasoned snack specific chopstick design with rubber tips for better grip on thin chip-like food structures. o_0

I use mine to take toast out of the toaster so that I don't burn my fingers.

I'm the only person I know who does that :|

Sure, they're fine. I really only use chopsticks when I buy some Flame Broiler, it gets the job done.

I have a set of tongs on top of my toaster-oven for this purpose.

Those who can't figure out simple chopsticks are uncultured swine.

I don't even know where my mom keeps the tongs. \o/

It's just about the only way to eat noodlesoup or sushi without hating life. So yes, I can and sometimes enjoy chopsticks. 99% of the time I prefer a spoon or knife/fork combo.

I said no because I'm terrible at using chopsticks but whenever I go to a restaurant that has chopsticks I wish I knew how to use them.

Depends on the food and location. Using sushi as an example, if I'm home I'll use my hands, at a restaurant I'll use chopsticks. The table and its utensils become my drum kit with chopsticks in hand.
