I just heard before that eating using chopsticks improves your concentration power, is that true? and are there any other benefits of using chopsticks?
i don't know, i live in the U.S. and we always use knives and forks and spoons, but i love using chopsticks! even if im not eating chinese or japanesse(never had but i wanna try some)!
