Use of chopsticks in the Chinese culture is attributed to the Confucian philosophy that emphasizes family harmony as the basis for civil order and traditional Confucian values of moderation, civility, and nonviolence.
"knives are for warriors, but chopsticks are for scholars"


.....Cringe AF!

>>21485536
nothing there is said about forks, why don't they use forks?

>>21485536
is that what chatgpt told you, zoomlord?

They use these as weapons now in wrestling

>>21485535
It's almost as if cultures that use chopsticks tend to prepare their food in a way that is conductive to eating with chopsticks.
You might as well complain that eating soup with a fork is impossible.

>>21485540
Bone forks have been found in archaeological sites of the Bronze Age Qijia culture (2400–1900 BC), the Shang dynasty (c. 1600–c. 1050 BC), as well as later Chinese dynasties. A stone carving from an Eastern Han tomb (in Ta-kua-liang, Suide County, Shaanxi) depicts three hanging two-pronged forks in a dining scene. Similar forks have also been depicted on top of a stove in a scene at another Eastern Han tomb (in Suide County, Shaanxi).

They gave up forks in favor of chopsticks when Confucius came to the scene.

how do you eat animal flesh without a knife? just stab it with chopsticks and take bites out of it like a savage?

>>21485558
in chinese cuisines usually meat is either chopped in small pieces before cooking or braised long enough to be easily taken apart by chopsticks

you use a knife to cut it and then eat it with chopsticks. the same way in western culture you would use a knife to cut it and then eat it with a fork. how is that any different?

>>21485568
This nerd probably wipes his ass with chopsticks and moans when he wipes his ass

>>21485569
I don't think t-bone steaks are a very popular dish in asia. do you understand that different cultures eat different foods and use different tools adapted to those foods?

Why do people use videos like this to make the Japanese look bad?
This kind of racism should not be allowed on /ck/ because it makes people from Japan look bad. In the USA, they do not publish the race of alleged perpetrators if they are Black. Even if people are guilty, all proof and evidence should be erased if it singles out members of any particular race, even if they are white.

>>21485535
desu if you cook your rice like the asians do it works out pretty well. Not your average china garden fried rice but ricke washed of starch in a rice cooker will stick together and not be terrible to pick up.

Also eating things with chopsticks can be thought of as the human "slow feeder" of eating, as it is known eating more slowly decreases the time it takes to get full. Might be something to be learned there when I see fat behemoths walking about shoveling piles of food into their disgusting gullets on the daily

All of you are using inferior eating utensils.
KNEEL, swine.

>Needing gloves
Pathetic and woman like

just put your mouth to the edge of the bowl/cup and drink the soup from it
then use your begloved fingers to sweep the remaining solid bits into your lips

>>21485632
You take the glove off and fill it with soup idiot

>>21485634
That's what bread is for

>>21485624
>it is known eating more slowly decreases the time it takes to get full.
How do you think that actually works?
By your own admission, it sounds like it would actually INCREASE the amount of time it would take to get full since you are eating less in the same amount of time. Like imagine you are filling a tank with gasoline, but you decreased the throughput. It would take longer to fill it up, right?

>>21485491 (OP)
You think that because the instructions on takeout chopsticks are utter BS. You're supposed to hold them near the top. Use your ring finger for balance.
Furthermore, I demand the immediate public release of all information related to Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking business.

>>21485639

Who? We're getting coca cola with real cane sugar now.

>>21485640
the soyence says that hunger receptors have a bit of a lag time between the stomach is actually full and when that reaches your brain. If two people of identical constitution ate the same meal at different speeds one would feel full faster than the other.

Whether the science is true or not I believe it via intuition. Eating too fast leads to overfullness. Chopsticks aren't the best eating utensil by a longshot but I get the logic

>>21485646
>Whether the science is true or not I believe it via intuition. Eating too fast leads to overfullness.
If you eat the same amount of food as you usually do, how would you get the overfullness, regardless of how fast or slow you eat?
Am I being pranked? Is this a schizophrenia thread?

>>21485656
are you pretending to be illiterate or does it come naturally

>Chopsticks aren't the best eating utensil by a longshot but I get the logic
what is then genius

Why aren't chopsticks just replaced with these? Practically the same except it can hold things better, even liquids, and has no ergonomic problems preventing usage by anyone.

>>21485666
depends on what you're eating clearly

I lulzed.

The debate is over
INTRODUCING THE FORKCHOP

>>21485683
I'm serious, there are small hand-sized tongs like that which could replace chopsticks and spoons.

>>21485672
The answer is contextual but if you want one utensil it's the fork. In traditional contexts spoons were upper class items, broth was drunk from a bowl and bread sopped up the remains. But the fork was used even by the poor to spear up the rare juicy fragments and to be used to stabilize things while cutting and the like, spoons weren't really for the common man but everyone needed something pointy to grab things

>>21485686
I'm sure that will happen when the Japanese invent the spring. Oh yeah, those guys DEFINITELY invented the process for making computers.

>>21485684
what's the fucking point of having a fork on chopsticks when chopsticks are half a fork already you can literally already poke food with chopsticks like a fork AHHHHHHHHH

>>21485696
You must be from Africa because you can't seem to count tines above one.

>>21485703
chopsticks = 2 pokey ends
fork = 4 pokey ends
2 / 4 = half??!

>>21485709
So if 2 chopsticks equal half of a fork, would 4 chopsticks equal 1 fork?
And if a chopstick could chop sticks, how many sticks could a chopstick chop?

>>21485696
Heh you're going to love this. It's called the Froggetmee

>>21485716
It should be called the Halvsporken.

I can eat olives out of the jar with those faster than you can do it with a fork.

>>21485737
skewers are better for that

>>21485737
Do you frequently test this?

>>21485737
>I can eat olives out of the jar with those faster than you can do it with a fork.
I can do the same thing with a spoon that has a hole in it for liquids to drain out of. It's actually probably faster than chopsticks since I can empty the entire jar into the spoon and eat it all in one go.

>>21485740
>poke olive
>It moves out of the way
>Repeat

>>21485737
I can just pick up the jar and pour the contents in my mouth faster than you with your gay little utensils.

>>21485773
I guess it would be hard if you're a dumbass

>>21485535
TRY EATING THINGS GHEY WERENT MADE TO EAT WITH

Try drinking tea with a knife you fucking retarded monkey cunt turbo downy
Fucking hell, your dad must have just fucking walked out without even pretending he smoked just get away from his shame, didn't he cunt?

>>21485975
The problem with your inane blithering is that asian countries using chopsticks, use chopsticks as their only utensils to eat food. So your cocksmoking analogy doesn't make any sense.

>>21485491 (OP)
Just eat with your hands its not that hard

>>21485989
saaar

>>21485982
>Asian countries have no knives
Retard.
They use knives retard.
And plenty of other utensils.
The only difference is the order of operations.

They chop, slice, dice, cut into fine pieces all in the kitchen.

>>21485994
Some japanese do it too but they dont tell you that, it's in more trad/countryside families

>>21485996
not according to confuscious up above, only warriors use knives. chopsticks are for scholars *tips fedora*

Name a food and I'll tell you

>>21486028
that sounds retarded, why would you just give up on so many foods?
they can't even eat peanut butter with chopsticks
are they stupid?

>>21485989

>>21486033
Everyone's problem here is that they limit themselves to 2 chopsticks. Nothing is stopping you from grabbing 6 or 7 and scooping up some peanut butter

>>21486041
no one does that

>>21486041
That is their choice.

>>21486028
then how come I can eat all of their cultural cuisine in addition to every other cultural cuisine? sounds like fork knife and spoon is simply better than chopsticks, wise guy. I don't have any such self imposed handicap like them

>it's another episode of retarded gaijin making a fool of themselves sasuga

>>21486041
gonna try this technique to mog the next time we go out to eat

It literally only takes 30 minutes to figure these out. And this is coming from someone who's only recently started using them

>>21485696

Huh? Anyway, anyone who can't use chopsticks shouldn't even be writing here. If you are, then you CAN use chopsticks. The pen grip is illegit but it's fine and nobody notices anyway.

Knives are for warriors
Chopsticks are for scholars

>>21485587
>even niggers think jeets are foul

Why don't they just use spoons?
They have excavators. If a Chinaman wants to dig a hole, he grabs a shovel, not two broomsticks. They transport the food from the kitchen to the table on plates or bowls, not on bundles of sticks. Yet they insist on using sticks to eat.
This is the same ridiculous adherence to tradition as that stupid script they use. Phonetic alphabets are more effective and infinitely easier to use, and chop sticks are a dumb way to shove food in your face, but they just can't stop making shit unnecessarily difficult.
Fuck China is what I'm saying, basically.

>>21486955
they do use spoons, big fuck off spoons for their tiny slanted faces

an entire thread of retarded whites not knowing asians have spoons.

>>21487027
or silverware really or bowls or anything
because I saw it in my country first which MUST mean it is THE SUPREME white man's invention and everything else is a flatfaced fake and a copy!

I am so happy white people are becoming extinct.

I hate them
they are very inefficient and make eating difficult. they have to adapt all their recipes around this retarded device. like making the rice very sticky or else little bowls that are easy to pick up next to your mouth and shovel in

I hate how white people use them in public in western countries and on TV. it is so cringe. do you eat with your hands at an indian restaurant? why would you do something totally different just because the ethnicity of the food? it is retarded and people shouldn't go along with it

Oh no looks like r/asianmasculinity has found the thread lmfao
