minus-squareDaddleDew@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoThere are foods that just don’t hit the same if you don’t eat them with chopsticks. Ever tried to eat sushi with a fork? But if it’s a rice bowl, screw the chopsticks. Gimme a spoon.
minus-squareEat_Your_Paisley@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoI eat sushi with a fork at least once a week
minus-squareNoneOfUrBusiness@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoI firmly believe sushi should be eaten with hands.
minus-squareFurbag@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoJapanese sushi chefs agree. Sushi is a finger food.
minus-squareBigDiction@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoMakes sense. A chef’s hands touched 80% of that piece of Nigiri while making it

minus-squarerumba@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·3 months agoSpaghetti with everything feels wrong. The form factor is simply bad. It’s not like a garden hose, where you need it to be that long.

minus-squareEndlessNightmare@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoIt’s not my least favorite, but it’s a bit down the list. Penne is probably the best general purpose shape, at least according to these guys: https://www.realsimple.com/we-asked-chefs-which-pasta-shape-works-best-in-any-dish-11849324 I’m a fan of rotelle and fiori as well.

minus-squareschnurrito@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoI used to eat sushi with a fork and it is possible. But that’s really about the only food that’s easier to eat with chopsticks than fork and knife.
minus-squareCaveman@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·3 months agoDepends on the rice, sticky rice is really easy to eat with chop sticks, you can just generally grab anything and get a chunk. Medium sticky you can scoop up but non sticky/liquid sauce is a non-starter.
