Yup, did tonight actually at a Japanese grill. They're not second nature to me, but I don't fumble around with them either; been using them for about 14 years.

It would not a beautiful scene, but if - for some reason - I had to eat with chopsticks I would manage to lift food from the plate into my mouth.

It's actually not considered improper to pick it up with your hands

Correct. It's perfectly acceptable to eat sushi with your hands.

When I was little and we ate Chinese food, my dad wouldn't allow us to use anything but chopsticks. We came up with some pretty creative ways of using them before we caught on.

I still use chopsticks. It can get messy without them.

To an extent. I can't eat fast with them, and occasionally still drop the food.

I'm getting better! :P

I've always 'kinda' knew how to use it since I have an Asian mother. I still prefer western utensils though.

Yes, as long as it isn't loose rice.psychobrew

Pretty much. Loose rice and chopsticks are like oil and water.

And yes, I can eat with them TC.

Yes, I can use it to eat a bowl of rice, boiled egg, peanuts and even use a pair of pen or BBQ stick as chopsticks but I'm not good with fork + knife.

I want to try chopsticks + knife next time.

Hehe, the trick to rice is considered rude by western standards. You're supposed to put the bowl to your mouth and use the chopsticks to shovel it into your mouth.

I learned to use chopsticks about the same time i learned to use a fork.

I can but not very well. I usually eat about half of my food and decide it's taking too long so I use a fork.
