  • @London2011Riots Because you also need to have the knife, and given the choice between using the off-hand for the docile, mostly non-moving fork or the sharp, slicing knife, I think I'd rather use my good hand to operate the knife.

    I LIED, I EAT WITH MY BARE HANDS ANYWAY.

  • 1:15 - 1:22 Thats what she said. anyways nice tips :P

  • @maddypuppy

    She was reared in a household with only ONE knife to go around so they just HAD TO chop their meat into small pieces.

    Imagine if there was only ONE spoon or plate or ...

    The other thing, at 0:49 she's holding the knife like a pen.

  • I watched this video to see how right handed people hold their knife and fork and they do it backwards. When only using a fork I hold it in my left hand. When using a knife and a fork I have the knife in my left hand while the fork is in my right.

  • why do right handed people hold the fork in their left hand, that is the most wrong thing human beings have ever done. They suddenly become left handed when they eat.......

  • i feel soooo embarassed that i had to watch this......>.<

  • Thumbs up if Deftones brought you here.

  • Very incorrect regarding the cutting of the meet. You never cut your meat into more then 1 piece at a time. Same with bread. You tear a small piece at a time and butter 1 piece at a time.
