Iv watched several customers in Japanese restaurants in the heart of DC actually stab their food with chop sticks. Now this is of course funny and yet sad. What makes it worse is their forks available why these people never ask for forks is beyond me. So i actually ask a customer who was sitting across from me why he was stabbing his food he told this is the way they eat in China and its rude to eat Chinese food any other way (did i mention we were at a Japanese restaurant)
. All i could do was stare then face palm and go back to eating my meal.
