Can we all agree that besides from eating snack foods such as chips (eg Doritos, Cheetos etc) so your hands don't get dirty, that chopsticks are a redundant eating utensil?

like you may as well use knife forks and spoons

>> No.9022659

you can eat cheetos with a spoon as well

probably bigger chips like doritos and pringles are the only ones you need these for

There's a certain novelty to their use that I enjoy, especially for beginner friendly foods like sushi.

I also really enjoy using them as utensils to stir while cooking.

It's a challenge. a fork is too easy.

>> No.9022942

I do it at restaurants that give the option to avoid using utensils that require washing, namely because I usually only eat out on weekends, which is when places are more packed and employees might be more negligent than usual. Last time I went out I saw a kid licking their damn fork like an animal last and was immediately all the more thankful for the fact that no one has come into contact with my chopsticks.

i mix mayo, bacon bits and cheetos together in equal parts, and mix decently. the mayo coats the cheeto, and thus the cheeto dust from your fingers ( and provides liquid to make it easier to suck clean ), while the mayo coating itself lets you "grab" the cheetos without actually grasping, they just stick to your fingers. i use this for gaming because you can keep playing without taking your hands off the screen, just randomly dab into the bowl, suck it clean off your fingers, and bam, your clean, hygenic and ready to keep playing before your character has finished reloading.

asians need to step their game up and make chopsticks that are hollow so you can use them as a straw to slurp up broth
