Why do Asian nations still use primitive bamboo sticks even when the White Man introduced more hygienic form of kitchen ware (metal forks, knives etc.)?
>Oh but they are efficient way to eat your food Finnmongol-San
I am getting tired of this. They are absolutely shit-tier food items in terms of inserting food from a plate to your mouth. One could host eating competition where competitors were allowed to choose their utensils and no one, not even the Chinese, would pick out the chopsticks.
kung-fu skills, only way
>more hygienic
I don't see how forks/spoons/knives are more hygienic than chopsticks.
checked
>have tons of useless bamboo forest
>make tons of sticks that you can throw away after each use
>bamboo forest has grown back tomorrow
>they're so inefficient and hard to use
if you're a moron with flippers for hands
>have shovels and rakes and ptchforks for millenia
>never figure out to make tiny versions for food
so much for high asian IQ
Boohoo, someone's butthurt he can't use chopsticks. I guess your fingering skills must be just as shit tier.
I find them easy to use but not as efficient as a knife and fork.
Wood is porous.
Metal isn't.
Bacteria simply washes off metal.
Wood harbors it.
There's a reason rich people use silver utensils, and everyone else at least uses stainless steel.
Most medical and food service equipment is stainless steel too.
And no, not because it's "stainless", do some research.
