What does this have to do with Asians and chop sticks? I don't know.
I don't either, but for some reason I read every word of that dissertation riveted.

Maybe to eat the noodles they invented.
I used them to eat salad, better than a fork IMO.

Immediately thought of this, beat me to it.

Chop sticks are easier.

You should work for your food. You eat less and don’t become Fatty McFatfrick.

Forks are way easier to use.
To eat the food they eat, I assure you it isn't. Try eating sushi with a fork sometime. It's much more practical to grab most Asian dishes. Plus Asians have community dinners where only spoons and chopsticks are practical. It's hard for me to imagine stabbing most Asian dishes in the middle of the table in front of everyone.
Anyone I see in an Asian restaurant eating with a fork, they better be under 6 or they're trash.

It's pretty fricking easy. Eaten noodle dishes hundreds of times with chopsticks. You do know that the Chinese invented noodles and the Italians took the idea from them, right?

As already stated, a lot of what they eat is easier with chopsticks. It’s like eating with your fingers without getting your hands messy

And once you're good with them, you can do just about anything with them. Picking up marbles is the hardest, but becomes a breeze once you keep it up for months.

You know they’ve seen the fork. They’re staying with the sticks. I’m impressed by that. I don’t know how they missed it. A Chinese farmer gets up, works in the field with the shovel all day … Shovel … Spoon … Come on … There it is. You’re not plowing 40 acres with a couple of pool cues
