Sushi with fingers?
 

Just curious, do you eat your sushi with chopsticks, or with your fingers?

everybody eats sushi with chopsticks dont they?

Not always. Either chopsticks or fingers are okay.

I prefer fingers, but that's mostly because I can't use chopsticks and I hate eating it with a fork.

...Wait a minute. Wasn't there already a poll like this?

don't eat it xD sooo neither

Fingers for sushi, chopsticks for sashimi and everything else.

Chopsticks, unless they're really big rolls, like my dad makes.

i usually eat it with chopsticks.
but there are sometimes when i am really " chopstick challenged" and i just use my fingers. i think its okay either way.

That there was, where we found out that as the restaurant in Japan becomes more expensive, it becomes more acceptable to use your fingers to eat the sushi with.

haha... I use my fingers because it's easier to use, but I sometimes use chopsticks.

Only really had it once. But I try with chopsticks get mad and either go for a fork or pick it up.

i use chopsticks to the best of my ability. ^_^*

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.

Oh yeah, many Japanese eat with their fingers.

err depends what kind of sushi.. sometimes i use chopsticks and sometimes fingers

^yeah same. also depends on where i am and who i'm with. :D
but most of the time chopsticks

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.

While I suppose you could avoid the soy sauce bit by being very careful, it would be pretty close to impossible to pull it off without getting any rice (or rice stickiness, at least) on your fingers.

I personally don`t mind the rice as much as the fish scent. And just wiping it away with the oshibori doesn`t help - it`s only hot when you get it before you start eating.

I go to 100 Yen sushi-go-rounds and I like to use alot of Soy Suace and Wasabi:D . I am not down for the Ichiman-yen Sushi:cool: .

100 yen sushi!?
where? lol
but i love the sushi-go-rounds (lol, did you make up that name?) too

It’s kind of a nickname that I have heard and always used. Because the sushi travels around the conveyer belt kind of like a mary-go-round.

I know of a few 100 yen sushi. One in Yokosuka, one in Fukuoka, two in Sasebo, and one in Okinawa.

fingers for me.

I don't understand what's so hard about using chopsticks. xD

I guess maybe it's because I've been using them since I was five.

But, to answer the question... I prefer those certain moments when I do get sushi, to use chopsticks. Especially if there's wasabi or ginger dip.
