granted i work with miners, and got into a culinary discussion with them. they were amazed i eat with chopsticks. chopsticks are not special, are they? i am not convinced miners even use forks, but chopsticks are not unusual are they? i am chinese, but i didnt grow up using them, and was horrible with them. after moving to california, and meeting my wife, i can now use them with either hand! i dont eat with them often, but i cook with them everyday. from flipping donuts in hot oil to quick whipping eggs, they are a fantastic multitasker.

my mom and stepdad, never use them. they live in texas. is it a geography thing?
