How do you use a knife and fork?

[manju]

You eat the way everyone at your table is eating. It's a social courtesy for any gathering involving food.
Chopsticks, bare hands, utensils in both hands or utensils in one hand, we are all adaptable.

Personally, I think as societies become less and less carnivorous, eating with knife and fork in each hand will disappear as the need for the knife will become less and less.

I always found it curious how people eat peas and rice with the fork knife method, pushing them onto the back side of the fork with the knife and mushing them between the tines. Odd. Now that is inefficient and awkward.

Spoon or chopsticks are obviously the superior peas/rice conveyance method.
