I have tried 3 times, and I have been successful in eating my food with chopsticks.😛 But all three times, they were noodles, i don't know if i can eat anything else with it.😃 It was rather easy to eat, but my fingers started hurting by the time i was done eating! 😳 i saw it getting used in these shows, and then i watched it carefully how to hold it, Then next time i got chinese food, i tried it and it worked fine! For those who are trying to learn, i would like to give some tips.
First of all, hold 1 chopstick close between your thumb and first finger. just like you hold a pen or pencil. and 2nd one wraped under first finger. keeping your first finger around it, and thumb keeping both of them apart from top and close at the bottom. so basically, you move the 2nd chopstick to get smaller or larger amount of food, and keep the 1st chopstick at the same place. and use first finger and thumb to move 2nd chopstick.
I hope i am not confusing anyone. Just think of it as holding 2 pencils together!!!!
I am preety sure this is not helping. But i would recommend that whoever wants to try, give it a try. You will get better each time, with practice!
GOOD LUCK!!! 😊
