Why would anyone use chopsticks when forks exist?Stupid asians
Not all of Asia uses chopsticks. Just the east. The rest of us eat with our hands or use forks.

Why would anyone eat food when Soylent exists?That's how stupid you sound, OP.
>>21990566The heat from the sticks cooks the egg
>>21990575Not just Indians. Kazakhs/Uyghurs, Burmese, Cambodians, Thais/Laos, Mongolians, Nepalese, Tibetans, Hmongs etc all do, too. Beshbarmak literally means "five fingers" in Kazakh and that's exactly how the dish is eaten. Video related https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfiAjDtiyk0The outfit the little girl is wearing? I've got a picture of my older sister wearing the exact same one when she was that age. Must be a Kazakh thing or something, idk. Never really thought about it.
>>21990566how are you supposed to eat noodles in a soup with a fork? stab them? ive tried before and they always just slide off before i can get them to my mouth
>>21990617Lebbos, Flips, Mexicans, Italians, Germans, pretty much everyone does it, it just depends on the food. Retards from Staten Island still malding over Memedani getting elected though lmoa
>>21990619Yeah, I wasn't going to mention it but noodle dishes imported to Kazakhstan from China and Korea are usually soupy or saucy (laghman is probably a Kazakhism of ramen/lo mein/ramyun/laomian) and Is often eaten with chopsticks by younger folks. >>21990620lmaoI'm actually from Italy, just a quarter Kazakh. I honestly can't think of anything we eat with our hands that isn't bread or street food. But my grandma? Most of the stuff she cooked was finger food.
>>21990619small mouthfuls, anon
>>21990566I use them when I eat something chunky and slippery in a bowl. Like a thick chunky stew, or something like chicken and veggies with a sauce. It is just easier to pick them up with chopsticks rather than pressing down on slippery cubed meat that slides around. Just picking it up off the top of the bowl is just easier.Otherwise, I have no idea. Cultural I guess. For noodles of any kind, fork will always win. For rice, a spoon will always be superior.
idk why chopsticks cause so much seethe must be people mad they can't use them
