Chopsticks. Unless I'm on the go and there are no chopsticks handy (unlikely).

I always thought people used their fingers because they didn't know how to use chopsticks. I didn't realize it was culturally acceptable to use your fingers to eat sushi. Surprises, surprises.

Chopstx most of the time. I don't want to get rice and soy sauce on my fingers. If it is wrapped with sea-weed, then I might use my fingers. Then again, on time I had such a craving for sashimi salmon, I bought a pack in Max Value, and devoured the whole cut on site. Man that was good:) .

I would rather eat with chopsticks when I'm in public....but in private I eat with my fingers.....I'm not as well mannered as I appear...

actually >.>"'
if the sushi is made correctly, and you eat it correctly~
you won't get any rice or soy sauce on your fingers o.o'
actually, your hardly even supposed to get soy sauce in your rice x]

(and, they're supposed to provide you w/ a warm towel too wipe your hands w/ anyway)

Both, since it depends on the type of sushi I'm eating, but for the most part, I just use chopsticks for practice.
