yep, that's strange and I think you should go get that checked out.

I don't like watching you kiss your boyfriend in public, but you don't see me complaining.

>>4103231
Not even trolling.

I went to eat pizza with friends last week and realised that some people actually eat with their hands. It just goes against everything I've learnt about table manners.

>>4103242
People like different things. It's not a big deal.

>>4103242
> everything I've learnt about table manners

Sounds like your parents were faggots

>>4103248
No, we're just not working class scum.

>>4103254

Stop trolling 4chan, mitt.

I have the opposite. People eating pizzas (or worse burgers) with a knife and fork is just strange. You look like an alien just landed on earth.

>>4103254
I'm glad money has estranged you from your fellow human beings.

lol, what planet are you from, OP

>eating Pizza with a knife and fork

>>4103265
England.

I picture Richie Rich sitting a table, alone, trying to eat a slice of thin crust pizza with 3 different forks and knives. Harumphing at the unwashed masses who are actually managing to have fun and get the food in their mouths.

>>4103254
Sound like the exact opposite, covering up for trash roots using cutlery where it's not needed.

Insecure much?

If I order delivery or make my own, I'm eating with my hands.
If I'm going out somewhere meaningful, I'm using cutlery.

you are my grandpa, he ruins every family meal by criticizing how I eat. we were having lobster and I was using my hands to crack the tail and he started complaining and yelling at me.

>>4103290
What the fuck kind of high-end fancy-pants restaurant serves pizza?

>>4103297
This is a britfag thread.
Pizza express.

>>4103297
Pizzahut.

>>4103297

Deconstructed pizza, you get a pepperoni stick and sodomize a cow with it.

>>4103270
oh, that explains it. Look, in America its acceptable to eat pizza with your hands, just like a sandwich, a burger, hot dog, tacos, burritos, french fries, etc etc.

It's simple food for working class folks and kids, maybe meant to be eaten on the go, or standing on the street, or in your car. Eating these things with a knife and fork makes you look like a prissy little faggot.

>>4103301

>pizza hut
>high class

Anyone who cares about "manners" in 2012 is a fucking retard. That's not to say you shouldn't care about taking care not to be rude or offend people, but I mean stupid sht like no elbows on the table or eating pizza with a knife and fork.

Traditional manners are archaic cultural developments that globalisation should have educated us enough to drop. Anyone who still cares about that shit is practically the same as africans stretching their necks with brass rings or chinks mutilating their daughter's feet.

>>4103304
Unless, of course, you get one of those super deep dish contraptions. Those were designed to be eaten while sitting down, with a fork and a knife.

>>4103304
>pizza demoted to working class fast food junk
No.

>>4103310
But it is. Invented by the working class for the working class. Doesn't mean you can't enjoy it as an upperclass person of course.

>>4103309
true.

but, at some point you can pick up the crust with your hands and eat it, or dip it into a sauce like ranch. You can do this at any restaurant and no one will frown at you.

Oh my, some proper jezza Kyle fodder here thinking Pizza Hut and pizza express are "high end" restaurants.

>>4103314
Hut, no.
Express, sure.

yes, you're the only one

>>4103316
You know, I was the guy who made the high end restaurant post, and even I can think of a higher end place than pizza express that serves pizza. Some local Italian place, can't remember the name.

They still would think you're funny in the head if you eat it with a fork and knife.

>>4103304
Eating anything in a dinning environment with your hands makes you look uncivilised, like some northerner or an African.

Real men use the appropriate cutlery.

>>4103322
The appropriate cutlery for pizza is no cutlery.

How do the Italians do it?

>>4103305
It's seen as a decent restaurant everywhere outside of the US apparently.

>>4103334

It's a restaraunt, not a high class one, it's a dennies, an ihop, a wafflehouse level diner that also does delivery. That's it. Only white trash consider it "high class"

>>4103331
with their hands, like a civilized people should.

>Eating Pizza at a friends
>He gets a knife and fork
>Uses the knife and fork to scoop ketchup onto his pizza

>>4103354
its way lower than ihop or dennys, eating dinner at pizza hut is like taking your family out for breakfast at mcdonalds dressed in your sunday best

I have seen way to many black families do this

I've only ever seen toothless/old people eat pizza with a fork & knife.

I bet you eat burgers and sandwiches that way too.

I used to take all the toppings off, eat them, then butter the crust and eat it.

>>4103459
As a kid I'd eat the cheese/toppings, scrape off the tomato sauce, and eat the bread. Nowadays I just have alfredo pizza. So good. Easier on my stomach too.

>>4103481
I did that too, I couldn't stand tomato sauce. Now I can put up with it, but I prefer bbq or alfredo on my pizza.

>ex invites me to dinner at her house

Needless to say, they were white.

Also, unrelated, but one time we made enchilada casserole with plain yogurt instead of sour cream

>>4103550
I eat burritos with a knife and fork as well

That's like eating a sandwich with a knife and fork. There's a reason it's called finger food.

I have a giant beard so I routinely eat finger foods with a fork and knife.

>>4103567
Is your burrito having its period or is that just a funky enchilada?
Or perhaps you filled it with mozzarella, pepperoni, and sausage? You're a bad man.

Pizza is bread, and bread is, more often than not, finger food. It's perfectly acceptable to eat pizza with your hands.

>>4103583
Let me guess, a californiafag who puts rice or french fries in their burritos.

I usually eat the first part of the slice with a knife and fork and then use my hands when I get towards the crust so I can dip it into some ranch.

>>4103590
>>4103567
these are the best buritos, I love the macho buritto with chili verde

>>4103590
>there's an authentic way to make a burrito
>taste

>>4103628
The only people who bitch about burritos that look great are Californians.

>>4103590

>>4103590
Mexican Cession makes California more legitimate than your shit quality food.

>>4103226

>>4103636
...but burritos are a californian food item, they should be the ones making delicious burritos

>>4104278
burritos are mexican

>>4104289
Mexican burritos are tiny and boring, dude.

I'm talking the big, fat, san francisco style burritos.

>>4104278
>didn't read my post about the Mexican Cession

Are you fucking retarded? California used to be owned by Mexico before USA bought it.

>What are traditions? for 200

>>4104300
this guy knows what's up.

Californian burritos and tacos are way different than Mexican ones. White people are spoiled and want all this extra shit in their burritos. Mexicans keep it simple.

>>4103226

>>4103435
>Ketchup
Absolutely Disgusting!

>>4103567
That burrito looks like shit

>>4104300
Well, it usually depends on where you get it, some places sell small burritos, other places sell giant, over the top burritos, which are great by the way, I like both "styles" but usually go for the smaller ones

I look out for this stuff on tv
Why would you eat pizza with a fork?

>>4103322
OP is a gypsie

I occasionally eat pizza with a fork and a knife it it's got a lot of toppings, or if it's very hot. Otherwise, I stick to the classic method.

>>4106286
Because you can take smaller bites, thus allowing a single slice to last for more takes.
TV, nigga.

>>4106315
She didn't even take a real bite,
never touched her slice. What a fucking cunt.

In a restaurant/in public you use a fork and a knife, at home with your buddies no-one will care.

>>4106370
In a restaurant/in public you use your hands, at home with your buddies you use your fucking hands. What the fuck is wrong with you, it's a fucking pizza.

>>4106370
Would you eat a burger with a knife and fork?

>>4103273
>>4103304
>>4103306
>>4103309

Mittens, stay out of Mc Donalds. You wont like it when you see everybody eating their portable sandwiches with their hands.

>>4103263
Well clearly it hasn't, since he actually has friends to begin with. Much better than most of this site.

>>4103435
I hope you're not still friends with him.

I would consider using a fork and a knife for pizza, sometime. The main issue is that it's only worth the encumbrance when the pizza is badly-made and falling apart, which is always a shitty proposition.

You know what you really should use utensils for? Those fucking stacked nachos dishes you can get at your average casual dining place now. Eating them without utensils is just asking to get food all over your fingers as you grab for any kind of pristine nacho handle.

>>4103242
>Pizza
>food you eat with your hands

If this is a strange concept to you, you are very far removed from society. I don't even like Pizza but I never imagined it as a fork food unless it's a Chicago style pie.

Do you eat sandwiches with a fork too? Do you use a spoon to eat an Eskimo Pie?

>>4106672
pizza so greazy b
you want them shits on your hands? what about when you're touching on your girl, you want to leave streaks on her? nah knife and fork b, knife and fork

I also eat snickers bars with a fork and knife

>>4106676
>not cleaning hands after eating
you got other problems, B

>>4103262
fuck you what if that person's hands were dirty etc

I eat soup with my hands. Get on my level.

>>4103226
>Eating pizza with a fork.

>>4103236
>>>/b/

>>4106672
>dont like pizza
>not liking a food

Not liking food is for children. I'm serious man

Sometimes I eat pizza with a fork if it's falling apart and too greasy. I fucking LOATHE the feeling of grease/liquid on my hands. Also, when I eat something with hot sauce, even if I get none on my hands, I have to wash my hand extensively before I put my hands near my face.

Kind of related: sometimes I use a fork for a couple of bites midway through a burrito from Chipotle. It's totally delicious but so massive that I have a hard time taking a bite without it falling apart all over my hands.

>>4103331
I'm Italian, and we eat it with our hands. Pizza is traditionally seen as nothing more than bread with a topping and used to be eaten as a starter or side dish, with hands.

I eat pizza with a knife and fork, beginning from the crust, I scrape the toppings off first with the knife and have them afterwards.

Sometimes I eat it, crust first. Sometimes I rip the crust off and eat it like a bread stick in ranch.

>>4107199
It's ok and I'll eat it, but I prefer other foods to it.

>>4107731
Christ, that looks disgusting.

What is this, an Angie imposter thread? That nutcase had the same issue too.

>>4107279
if not a troll, i would punch you so hard right in the dick

>>4107803
Not the guy you're talking to, but my mother does this. Except she only eats the toppings/sauce and leaves the dough and crust behind.

>>4107810
This shit is fucking disgusting. I don't mind if someone's doing it alone in their room where nobody sees it but when I see a huge fucking plate of pizzas missing toppings and bread crumbs and shit with teeth scrapes all over it, it makes me fucking sick

If the pizza is so shitty that you can't eat the crust, stop fucking buying it. It's not because you hate pizza or the crust.

>>4103242
>It just goes against everything I've learnt about table manners.
In non formal situations it is okay to eat certain things with your hands including chicken drumsticks.

>>4107177
>fuck you what if that person's hands were dirty etc
You are supposed to wash your hands before eating doesn't matter if you use a fork, chop sticks or your hands.

>>4106676
>pizza so greazy b
>you want them shits on your hands? what about when you're touching on your girl, you want to leave streaks on her?
Wash your fucking hands!

>>4103242
>It just goes against everything I've learnt about table manners

You're some kind of pseudo-gentleman or something

For decades we'd had casual dining restaurants where it's perfectly acceptable to eat food like fries and pizza with your fucking hands. If you seriously practice table manners to this extent at a family table or in a casual dining area, you are a load of fuck.

>>4107803
I use my hands to peel off the toppings from the cheese. Then I leave a pile of cheese behind to put the toppings back on the pizza. I proceed to use a knife and fork to eat the pizza but leave the crust behind along with that cheese.

>>4103550
>eating burritos with ex's you are clearly trying to score with
>not sitting there with your stomach full of gas, and your asshole blabbering a moronic (and smelly) breakup speech

>>4103226
You're probably one of those fuckwits who eats a candy bar with a knife and fork. Would you eat a cookie with a knife and fork?
