No utensil related outrage comes close, to me, as people using FORKS to eat RICE. SOMEONE EXPLAIN THE LOGIC OF IT TO ME WHEN SPOONS EXIST

I've got a Spork. Is that wrong?

[-] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 6 points 1 year ago

Haha. It depends on how hungry or lazy I feel. 🤷‍♀️

Next thing people will use knives to eat soup. 15 or so years since I first moved here and it still irritates me. I will die on this hill

I was at a place that sells Hainan Chicken rice and they give me, an East Asian, a knife and fork for it. I asked for spoon and chopsticks.

Definitely deserves one star taken off the review for such outright rudeness

I got a fork and spoon recently ordering Hainanese chicken in the CBD. Made me feel so clumsy eating.

Rice on its own. There's no excuse. Use a spoon. If it's a side dish like with chicken kiev knife and fork.

Okay so this is the first I'm hearing of eating chicken kiev with rice. I would still use a fork and spoon, and a knife just to cut up the Kiev.

People eating rice and curry with a fork: what is wrong with you

I definitely use a spoon for that one.
