The simple reason for this is none of you seem to follow the crowd without thinking, though sometimes i will disagree with your reasonings, at least you didn't just accept what a newsreporter or teacher said to you!!!

Anyone on a forum who states their mind without letting other's bias get in the way has a good head on their shoulders. Too many people nowadays go with the flow, jump on the bandwagon, etc. As for me, I state my mind, and if someone doesn't like what I say, I don't get mad at them, I respect them. That's not to say that I don't take up for myself as well though. Anyway, chopsticks are really fun and intriguing to eat with, in my opinion. Ever since I first started eating with them (for any type of food in America that is suited for chopsticks xD) I have been using them ever since. Especially with ramen. xD Now, I do see how chopsticks could improve your concentration. To a certain extent, at least while you are learning how to use them, I'd say that it is possible. One reason being that you have to concentrate so that your fingers support the chopsticks, while also gripping onto the food. xD In history, at least from what I have read, when the Europeans first explored Japan, they brought with them their knives. In early European times, they didn't use forks and spoons yet. So, to a Japanese person, the way a European person ate, looked rather untidy and disgusting to them. xD The Europeans only ate with a knife and their hands. Chopsticks look much more graceful to me. I personally like eating with chopsticks over a knife, spoon, and fork, but that could also have to with my love of Japan. xD Anyway, back on history...the Japanese didn't want to use a knife, because they thought that a sharp object should not be present at the dinner table. Or rather, an object that was like a sword, probably to them. I admire how the Japanese have kept their heritage of eating with chopsticks. Now, that is just a rough history about the chopstick. If anyone knows more about it, feel free to post more about it. Also, sorry if I posted anything that someone else has stated already. I didn't look back at the other pages. xD

Hey now, eating with hands is not uncivilized! In plenty of countries it's the traditional way of eating, and is supposed to make the food taste better
Different methods of eating for different foods, makes sense.
