    Who else likes using chopsticks?

    A few years ago I started eating with chopsticks. Not all the time, but pretty often. I've actually gotten really good with them and can do a few tricks. I realize that they are incredibly impractical compared to forks and spoons but there's something fun about them. I do sometimes wonder how the easterners missed the concept of the spoon though. I mean they have shovels right? Anyway who else likes using chopsticks?

    Every time I have Asian food, (except for soup).
    I think of it as part of the experience. I have been doing this for over 30 years.
    It's fun.

    I think eating with chopsticks is fun, my children enjoy it too. 

    Maybe eating with chopsticks forces you to slow down and eat less.

    I do.  I try...I manage, but I know I'm not holding them right.  It's always obvious when the waiter looks at me oddly as I spear my food with those little buggers, LOL   (kidding)

    I grew up with chopsticks use in the household so it was easier for me to be open to them. While I still use forks and spoons, as an adult now I often use quality chopsticks to eat such things as salads or in some cases, just to slow down the pace of my eating in general.

    Chinese food and Japanese food are not the same without chopsticks.   Chopsticks, Wasabe and Soy Sauce, with most Chinese dishes and Japanese dishes (especially California Rolls) and I am in heaven.
