No, it's an all of Europe thing. Another way you can easily spot an American at a restaurant in Europe, that is unless they've been taught how to eat properly and not like a godless heathen.

My niece does this, but she's only 2, so we usually give her a pass. She also eats cereal with her hands sometimes and ice cream with a fork.

He probably smashes it flat with a fist full of salad fork while sawing away with the grain like the goddamn barbarian he obviously is.

It really pisses you off?

I find the shovel grip a bit off putting, but it doesn't piss me off.



Here's a little video to educate you on the difference between the American style and European style of eating.

Don't be upset. Forks are versatile utensils. Try eating with your spoon turned upside down.
