Because rice is supposed to be mildly sticky, not drowned in butter.

Is that a rice rule or something?

Actually, chopsticks were used by the Chinese mostly for noodles. As far back as the Song Dynasty they had spoons.

Nope. Taiwanese American here. Grew up with chopsticks all my life.

I can tell you right now, chopsticks are pretty much used for almost everything.

It’s essentially a spork, spoon, fork, and knife all in one. Only more effective.

It is none of those things. It’s a pair of sticks.

Japanese rice is a bit stickier than your Uncle Ben’s and they don’t drown it in butter. The spoon is only meant for sipping liquid, not for shoveling food in your face.

Only a round-eye could be asking this.

Once you know how to use them they become quite versatile

I guess I’d be at the hobbyist level of chopstick achievement. I have no trouble using them and I think they have their advantages over western utensils, but at the same time, when I get to the bottom of a rice bowl (or worse, they put my rice on a fucking plate) it’s like FFFUUU (holds bowl up to mouth and slides everything out with a hurricane of clicking like everyone else at the bar)
