I've found slicing, and eating a shared cake with chopsticks during my time here a pretty efficient way of doing things.

In a world where forks and tongs exist, why do people cling to inferior technology?

I suppose it is like juggling. It feels like an achievement, but it has no real value.

I agree with salad. Especially if you are eating greens other than iceberg lettuce. The fork is still vastly superior though.

if you can catch a fly in the air mr. miyagi style with a fork i will renounce chopsticks.

in all seriousness though, eat a chinese soup dumpling with a fork and tell me how that works out for you and your superior technology.
