How to hold chopstick

[StartTheAlpha12]

I know how use chopsticks yay! XD lol!

[Mrbibadoo]

English version:

Step1: get the fork in your hand

Step2: Eat like a man

[coldmemories1]

Why do people use chopsticks anyway?

spoons are easier :p

[Buttify100]

@coldmemories1 just terditanal... they where invented befor forks

[Rawr8987]

I eat ramen like constantly and chopsticks are easier to wash than silverware.. I've got it down by now but I need to grip much higher apparently?

[ptreducto]

this is frustrating... -.-

[Msgothangel55]

i atually learned from this video ;)

[MsGdlove]

is it normal that it hurts

[tiaraanderson99]

thats was pretty easy 

[oOISekaIOo]

but i can't lift my middle finger in that position! XD

[spartanwarrior46]

I have been doing it for 2 hours with no succsess!

[smile2081]

i can hold it the right way just not pick stuff up.

[rp1703]

Teaching methods are not a strength of East Asian culture. One has to give them credit for the fact that they have been doing it all their lives and had to learn it the hard way by staying hungry.

Just an example for the possibly ignorant author: Your ring finger in step two is no way in the same position as in step 3. Your explanation is part of the packaging of every disposable pair of chop sticks (that I have ever seen)... and therefore not very helpful

[c0ndu]

step 4 - eat with ur hand

[1998gagana]

Congratulations O.O

[1998gagana]

Step 4- GO get a spoooon

[pausastronzo]

step 4 - go fuck yourself

[kaytaywazzzhere]

Ok I'm not usually racist but this is just sad watching a white kid trying to use these XD

[EffOne95]

Nyahaha, I remember as a kid I would drum with a pair that I had. Safe to say I snapped them and it hit me in the eye.

[oN1GHTMAREo]

thumbs up if your trying this with 2 pens

[LulatheOmniscient]

@oN1GHTMAREo I was trying with two pens as I was watching in my office

[barnaby713]

congratulations.

Chopsticks: the quickest road to carpel tunnel xD

[LulatheOmniscient]

@DianaBanana1775 I already have Carpal tunnel...are the odds of me mastering this against me?

[DianaBanana1775]

@LulatheOmniscient

Pretty much ;)

[Noburice]

Take out beans of the cupful with chopsticks. That's makes you "chopstick master".

[FunnyFlashClips]

step: 1

be asian

done.

[eirikmurito]

i will not be able to feed myself this way, but now i understand why the asians are so skinny :)

[lizziesissy123]

Aha I knew it!!!

[AlinaKhan31]

well, after soooo much trying i did it.... but now my fingers r paining like hell!! =(

[MEdance4ever]

wat the hell ...ur going to fast!!! :/

[LiluIru]

after about 6 vids i can finally eat my ramen without feeling like a tard xDD

[reloadro]

Am i doing it wrong if i'm using only 2 fingers to grip the upper stick ? I kinda got used to doing it this way and I've gotten pretty good at it, i feel like the chopsticks are an extension of my arm . Using 3 fingers is kinda hard ..

[MrsCandelita]

I nearlyy got it!!

[MsWeirdo55]

After watching about 8 of these videos I still can't get it !!!!

[saintsaens21]

@MsWeirdo55 you're not alone bro. I think my fingers are deformed by too many years of using a fork

[Edcob4ever]

LOL at the fork comment

[citrons666]

step 4 - go get fork.

[godwillhunting2]

@citrons666 .. LMAO

[glaaasje]

@citrons666 step 5 - play drum with the chopsticks

step 6 - run :P

[johndan79]

@citrons666

more easy :)



[Seffer20]

Finally mastered it!! Now I can go see my Korean girlfriends parents without them thinking i'm ignorant of their culture!! knowing how to use chopsticks for dinner was vital, it'd be ebarrassing to have to use a good ol Western FORK!

[SAIFll1996ll]

@Seffer20 lol

[SAIFll1996ll]

@Seffer20 lol

[Nev3rdie00]

To think over 1.3 Billion people in this world nourish themselves daily with this utensil....mind boggling.

[KimiScuderiaFerrari]

Im trying with 2 pencils xDD almost...

[FunkyHazelNutz]

okay, learned it,

Domo arigato gozaimasu ^-^

[hapibth0pel3ss]

I learn how to eat with chopstick in middle school when we were learning about different cultures and foods in History class. But I learned differently..still im not sure if im doing it correctly.

[Cute4wolf]

Wow, thanks. Now I just have to practice picking up things.

[1ndaz0ne]

aaa forget this i stickin with knife and fork =/

[AbeerSh15]

It hurtss :""""(

[Drinapropriatetouch]

The trouble I have is that I cannot hold the top stick with my thumb, fore finger and middle finger whilst keeping the lower stick held with any pressure or controll.

I can do either seperately but when I hold tthe top stick there is always a gap between my thumb and hand so the lower stick has nothing holding it.

[TheMrMontanino]

hello

[SorryYaUMP45xOWNED]

@TheMrMontanino hi

[kevininheven]

is there really a rite way. i mean i do it a different way.

the only difference is that i have only one finger the top chopstick

[WALLSTREETKID7]

cool.

[michaeljacksonicious]

i still can't do it..:\

[ItsEryk]

Me neither ;/...

[matisandy]

skipmuntz, i do. its easier for me.

[skipmuntz]

...congratulations...

does anyone else hold the lower one with their middle finger and the upper only with their thumb and index? I live in Japan and nobody does it like me :(

[Degenskonto]

I do that too, doing it like in the video is fuckin impossible

[Drinapropriatetouch]

@skipmuntz thats the only way I can get close.

[joshvargas2]

to be honest its easier than a knife and fork LOL less washing up to :)

[EXTENDED91]

this is so cool if you are not used to it.. whenever i go to eat chinese i ask for chopsticks and they look at me like "what for? you can't use them" .. but i can ;p and it's really cool in front of friends.. they always say "betcha can't do it" .. but i can xD

[issis90]

.. i just can't do it xD

[rhcpandsum41]

@issis90 try to be gentle, don't rush and don't try too hard, just do it smoothly, and try to check other tutorials if you have any doubt or questions. hope i helped, enjoy eating :P

[TAViX1980]

Realx guys. The Asian tehnique don't work properly to white persons and the reason it's just simple. The first and fifth finger are much smaller in case of caucasian people, so don't bother.

[missenne]

i don't know how to use chopsticks too.. but actually when i first tried i didn't ask any help.. i can use it with just two fingers.. oh and include the thumb haha.. i don't know if its right but i can get food. HAHA.. i want to learn because i have a big crush with a japanese person. AHAHA~

[ebspurlin02]

Oh God I fail, I still can't pick them up >:I

[wuviez]
