>Today I learned British people actually eat like this as a rule and it isn't just a weird thing a few people doYou're holding your knife and fork at all times like you're scared a viking/German/Muslim is going to storm in and eat it. They're not. It's fine. Calm down and eat your food slowly. No one is going to take it. Cut a piece of something, put the knife down, and eat it. Also don't use your knife to push things around, children eat like that.
>>541329609I'm from the South and we always ate that way using a fork and knife.
>>541329728zesty niggau fancy nigga lol
>>541329728Fellow southernor here. I was taught the same from my papa
>>541329609That's how you're supposed to hold dinnerware properly though, and I'm not even white, I'm a beaner mutt. What fucking backwater shithole do you live in OP?
>>541329728this nigga fresh, this nigga moist
>>541329609>holding silverware is a very important part of our culture>meanwhile their country burns around them by foreigners
>>541329609Are you saying you don't eat food with a fork in your left hand and a knife in the right hand? What is the controversy here?
>>541329609Doesn't everyone eat like that? After you're done cutting you eat with the fork on the right hand
>>541329791
>>541329791>>541329609holy fuck I am literally from Cuba and we know how to use kitchen utensils, kys you fucking african niggers
>>541329609that's the best most convenient way to hold cutlery, is it like rocket science to you
>>541329837>>541329791>Gay niggers accusing people of being gay for having basic table mannersThis is why I think niggers and nigger lovers need to be executed
>>541329883I hold the fork like a old school snare drummer in a marching band, not finger behind the fork head
>>541329609I hold my fork like a pencil and use it to cut my food without a knife because it is cheap chinese shit and they didn't bother to edge break or debur.
>>541329817You cut things as needed and put down your knife when not using it.
>>541329817we beaners have better table manners than amerimutts. the only country with worse table manners is india
>>541330100you're lying like a mother fucker, it was a beaner who made this thread you absolute fucking retard.
>>541329609Shut the fuck up you fisted grip nigger
>>541329609White people are increasingly using chopsticks and spoon here in Sydney, you get the idea.Fork and Knife are only used in steak house.
>>541330272>No more Knifey Spoony Grim
>>541329609how else would you eat?
>>541330209you here on /pol/ love to ascribe everything wrong in america to nonwhites but the truth is that even the whitest of americans always were the refuse of europe and dumb as fuck shabbos goyim who cut their own dicks and willingly serve jews
>>541329946>After you're done cutting you eat with the fork on the right handFork should always be in the left hand, because you cut meat with the knife in right hand from time to time.There is no such thing called done cutting, you don't cut a steak in a plate of small blocks in one go, you do it one at a time.You do however should put the knife down once a single cut is done, leave your right hand empty and use the fork in your left hand to pick the meat up and eat it.
>>541329609>anon learns that people use cutlery to eat food instead of eating out of a trough
>>541329609the fork is curved for a reason, if you hold it upside down, softer foods like pasta can slide off of the tines
Isn't this how everyone eats?The one thing I think is fancy is people who pile up food on the back of the fork with minimal pierce through it. I think they do it just to show off their fork balance skills.
>>541329609Only barbarians require knife on the dining table.
>>541329609>cut a single bite with the knife in their dominant hand and the fork in the other, set the knife on the plate rim, and switch the fork to their dominant hand to eat. Popular steak cuts include ribeye and strip, usually ordered medium or well-done.It is americans who cant eat properly.
>>541330217I see a lot of adults with the static tripod grip. I always wondered what is wrong with them.
>>541330217A black person would permanently stay in the fisted grip or digital pronate grip, for everything, but mostly in things with a sharpened blade.
>>541329609How the fucking else would you hold a knife and a fork?Do you eat with your hands like a jeet or somethingOr do you hold them the wrong way around?Knife is in right hand because its dominant (for most people) and you use it to cut meat
>>541329609I use fork in the right for eating, fork in the left for pinning and knife in the right for cutting. Because I am cultured unlike you swines.
>>541329728>>541329812Southerner here, we learned this at a very young age at cotillion
>>541330629That sounds retarded. You just keep switching shit over all the time, do you think you're a juggler or something
>>541330629>bong tries to pretend to matterSeethe at our superior style you faggot
>>541330629That’s not refined. That’s just retarded.
>>541329609>Using the tools like they were intended to be used is weird>Eat your food slowly. Cut a piece of something and eat it.That's the point.Also, people that don't stick the fork in the piece they're cutting off can leave now.
>>541329609>using a knife at allSavages.
I just stab my meat with the fork, lift the whole thing up, bite a chunk off, then put it back down.
>>541330636it used to be only women who never use their hands for anything so they can't hold a pencil properly, but kids growing up its touch screens made it more common with menpedagogy has ben struggling with this for the past decade, last I heard they pretty much just gave up and recategorized the fist grip as normal as kids increasingly lacked grip strength to write otherwise
>>541330417>you don't cut a steak in a plate of small blocks in one goI do thoughever
>>541329609My parents and grandparents taught me to eat like that to be a proper civilized man.I see so few people eat properly that I also stopped doing that just to not stand out too high from the average. First it was painful to do other than trained but now I can do it naturally. I hide my power level by eating with bare hand or fork only. I came to the conclusion that a single spoon is the best tool to eat at home I use that most of the time for everythingOn some occasions I eat normally if I have to present that I am civilized. 1-2 occasions a year.
>>541329946>After you're done cutting you eat with the fork on the right handThat's what small kids are allowed to do. Totally barbaric for adults.
>>541329609how else you eat when you are a human?>>541330949spoon is for soup or a baby feeding>fukk off with your cucksticks
>>541329609Next you'll be telling me to hold a pen properly and to wash my foreskin.
>>541329609I do this but I also cut all of my food at one time, then transfer the fork to the right hand and the knife to the left. This allows me to use the knife to manipulate positioning for optimum fork action as well as I never relax and completely putting down the knife could get me killed..
>>541329609SAAR YOU ARE TO PLS BE EATING WITH HANDS LIKE KRISHNA TOLD US TO DO. TAKE THE BLESSING FROM COW BUNGHOLE AND PUSSY SAAR
>>541329883>What is the controversy here?It's a social economics issue. Basically anyone/everyone raised proper to the point your parents have the time and understanding to correct even your table manners will hold their silver wear like in the OP. Dominate hand on knife. At least for food that needs constant cutting.Maybe continuously or they might cut some food, put knife on the side of the plate (never the table) and take a bite. If one is eating say potatoes or a scooping style item you swap hands, knife on plate of course.The raised by wolves sort, the lower class style, is they hold one or both in their fist. Like if I handed you a stick and said stab this apple. I have a friend like that and if you're eating our anywhere nice his shit table manners stands out. It's the dining version of just not knowing any better. You will legit rarely ever see anyone raise middle class or higher eat in any style other than continental. They fact some here didn't even know it was called continental is rather telling too.
Oo, a continental breakfast, you say? Don't mind if I partake.
>>541331531>wash my foreskin>the flag you replied tokek'd
I hold my fork with my right hand just to piss off the brits.
>>541329609I don't use a knife at all. I sharpened the outer edges of my fork so I can slice my food with one hand.This leaves the other hand free to control the bleeding.
>>541331535>I do this but I also cut all of my food at one time, then transfer the fork to the right hand and the knife to the leftWhyAre you all disabled or something and dont have the dexterity on the left hand even to put food in your mouth?
>>541330100Stop pretending like your kind south of the border have dinner tables. You live in stone and stick shacks with dirt floors, and a few milk carts that function as makeshift tables. If you’re exceptionally upper class where your from you maybe have 1 or 2 IKEA night stands salvaged from American junk yards.
>>541329791nnnnhyes quite. And an ooga booga to you as well
>>541331535>I also cut all of my food at one timeLike a little kid with mommy doing it for him at the table? Again, that might be OK at home but any sort dinning out at a nicer place it looks like you where raised by wolves. You're going to go out to a biz dinner at a $$$ steak house and then sit there at the start for a few making a little kiddy plate with it all cut up? Wtf? People notice that crap. You can cut up a few bites worth at most, eat, then cut again.
>>541330065That's how toddlers eat.
>>541331419>My parents and grandparents taught me to eat like that to be a proper civilized man.>I see so few people eat properly that I also stopped doing that just to not stand out too high from the average.

>>541329948/r/shittytumblrgifs
>>541329609This is obviously the right way to do it but in private I prefer to hold the knife in just a fist. Extending the finger on it feels uncomfortable and I get more strength and stability into the cut with the fist grip.
>>541329982it's just a joke lil bro, relax.
>>541329609I eat like this and I'm not going to stop. In fact because I know it bothers you, I might push with my knife even more.
I say! Mordred, those upstart colonials are being vexatious again.
>>541330100You eat with your hands Hesus.You serve tortillas with Caldo because of that.
>>541329609>Cut a piece of something, put the knife down, and eat it.mongoloid behaviour, just keep the knife in your hand and bring the fork to your mouth
Why should I switch the fork to my right hand when I am perfectly capable of using it with my left?
>>541329609>Today I was reminded of how retarded and stupid most mutts are.
>>541330383half the US are beaners like you claiming to be white. We ALL know you be lying, stupid fronting cholo faggot. You barely able to keep your stupid beans in your boreato, and when you fail, you looking like a pajeet eating your beans and shit off the plate.And don't get me started on you taco niggers shitting on the ground when the white man aint looking.
>>541332789hola, el inshalla mr mohammad.
>>541329609>not using two knives and picking the food up with a knife
