    Fork, Knife or Spoon

    This topic deserves some discussion.
    I know everyone loves the knife, but it is tricky to eat off one. The spork is a good weapon indeed, however, it is not a appliance whom is recognized throughout the American culinary community. I'm gunna put chop sticks on there also, as they are a vital piece of equipment. Man I use a lot of commas.
    You look like I need a drink.

    Chopsticks, because eating with them counts towards more ninja points!

    It's all about the fork. While I love chopsticks, they can't cut for shit. A fork can do it all...unless it's plastic...then it's fucking useless like any other plastic utensil.

    You can't eat soup with a fork. Or a knife. Or chopsticks.

    Just tip the bowl. Who need utensils for soup?

    You can eat anything with a fork, including chunky soup. The soup that you can't eat with a fork is easily slurped or drinken.

    Chopsticks all the way. Got back from Asia after a year and a half and it felt really strange to be using forks and spoons - I kept dropping and spilling food. Embarrassed myself in public a few times.....
    Chopsticks are so versatile, even cutting the softer stuff. Knife as a backup is all you need.

    yeah, but that means that you were sipping soup and broth from a small bowl, right? I vote for chopsticks with a large asian style spoon for help.

    We have silverwear sporks at my place. I find I can not vote until it is given as an option for it is my weapon of choice.

    Regardless of utility, a fork is just more fun! You can't stab with a spoon.

    Yeah, but you can whack better with a spoon. Who beats their children with a wooden fork? Nobody, that's who.
    Plus, you can't hang a fork on your nose.

    My husband puts a spoon at each place setting every time he sets the table. Regardless of whether we need it or not. What's up wit that?!

    I think chopsticks are easily the single best way to eat a green salad ever. Fuck chasing some flat lettuce around a plate with a fork, that's dumb. That said, it still isn't as dumb as chasing rice around a plate with chopsticks.

    I didn't put the spork on cause it is the all-mountain ski of the utensil world: decent at everything, but exceptional at nothing. Everyone would answer spork. How many of us actually eat with them an a regular basis?

    Yep, chopsticks are the shit for lettuce. As for rice...welll...if you've got the good rice, then it's nice and sticky so that isn't a problem. Fuck American-preferred rice long grain bleached Uncle Ben whiteness....I'm going for brown or sticky anyday!

    Caveat: Okay, so I do like the jasmin / basmati rice, which isn't sticky normally, but if you cook it right, it's grrrrrrEAT!
