Also, with sufficient experience, you can actually eat chicken wings, and many other foods with chopsticks. The only case in which chopsticks don’t work so well is where food is slippery.

  You just need hollow chopsticks

  This is why in Korean cuisine the default dining set is spoon+chopsticks.

Chicken wings are much easier to easy with chopsticks then with Western cutlery and avoid the awful sticky fingers issue entirely. Even more so for pig trotters and chicken feet which otherwise make your hands aggressively sticky due to the collagen.

  Chopsticks are also the best for eating flaming hot Cheetos. Avoids the red-finger syndrome, and the feeling that “I should eat some more, now that my fingers are already dirty”.

    I have such a reputation among my friends for liking flaming hot cheetos and eating them with chopsticks. I also like the Metal Gear Solid video game franchise, so a friend of mine made me this drawing: https://i.imgur.com/SLaMl2h.png https://i.imgur.com/SLaMl2h.png

      Wow, based on the date on the drawing, you've been chowing flaming hots with chopsticks for a decade. Do you have any lining left in your esophagus? I can only eat them in moderation (and can no longer eat the extra flaming hots at all — they give me a 'sore throat' feeling a couple hours later).

        Yeah I've had to slow down on them, my stomach is less agreeable to them than before. But back when I first started eating them, I was once able to finish an entire bag in one sitting. Not my proudest accomplishment, but it's amazing what a young stomach can handle. Nowadays I don't live in a country which has them readily available so I only have them from time to time when I visit the states.
