The practicalities of chopsticks?

Obviously you do not use chopsticks. Using chopsticks to eat salad is the easiest way. You can pick up soft lettuce leaves with ease whereas a fork has a hard time piercing the leaf. Of course the food is cut into bit size pieces which makes it easy to use the chopsticks. I have been using them for about 20 years and am as good with them as any Asian. Try them, you will get to love them when you get good at it.
