someone asked how I feel about eating with my hand. Right from childhood, I was taught to eat with my hand. In Fact I eat almost everything with my hand. I see eating with cutlery as a waste of time.

Sort:  

Eating with my hands feels as normal as putting on clothes. I was brought up that way.#crossculture

Infact where I grew up, It's so normal eating with hands that even when your hand are dirty, all you need to do is rub it on your clothes. Then you are good to go. #crossculture

I see, you're a man of culture as well.

Not really that. But it's what I've known all my life

Basically, I eat literally everything with my hands. Like what happened yesterday, we were eating rice and my friend dropped the spoon, went in and washed her hands. I was like, what happened? and she said Omo that thing dey waste time.

For me it depends on the food... Some food I can only eat with my hands, some can only eat with spoon (usually liquids,) and some food depend on the mood. (Being in a place I can easily wash my hands is a factor.)

Exactly. For liquid it's a NO NO for me. How is that even possible? Taking a liquid stuff with your bare hands. I don't really have mood for that though. Once it comes to food, I'm always in the mood

in fact I always consider it stress to eat with cutlery

Exactly. It can be stressful at times. Imagine eating meat with cutlery. Jesus! What happen to picking that thing up with your hands and giving it the bite of its life

Omo. Eating meat with cutlery is stressful ooo. Hands things 😂

Asin ehh. It's more than stressful

yeah... Eating with our hands is a cultural way of life that we are used to and somehow adds a spice to the food

#crossculture

Exactly my point. The feeling is out of this world

I know right

Well it's certainly a waste of water :-P, All those extra things to wash

Growing up we used to eat with our hands at home but then utensils out at restaurants

Food seems to taste better when you eat with your hands

Ohh my God. I love the sound of what you just said "Food taste better with hands"
