> I was berated often for holding my knife and fork the “wrong” way and so it’s instilled in me that there is a “right” way to use utensils Norms on that vary country-to-country, as does which hand the fork and knife go in, plus things like cutting a single bite at a time vs. pre-cutting several, or things like using a different hand to hold the fork while cutting versus while picking up food to eat, or keeping them in the same hands the whole time. [EDIT] Oh, and tines-up vs tines-down!
