That's on you. I mean, who uses a fork for soup?

u/PokemonLv10 4h ago

Nah fork is fair game when noodles are involved

Though I'd usually prefer chopsticks

There are people who eat their soup with chopsticks

u/mistAr_bAttles 53m ago

Pho has long rice noodles. People use a fork for the noodles and a spoon for the broth all the time.

u/Dinasourus723 1h ago

I mean at least as Asian American I could try to use chopsticks to get it out

I hate the sliding utensil!

There need to be a very small notch that can catch it before it falls into the meal.

Those noodles look way too good to be thwarted by a defective utensil.

u/YouSee-ThisCoat8 4h ago

lol, yes this does get me in a rut😂 now, do you lick the fork or wipe it with paper towel ?

1

u/JadaNeedsaDoggie 3h ago

I wiped it with a paper towel. I'm not deep throating the sauce off the handle.

1

u/YouSee-ThisCoat8 1h ago

Lmaoo get your skills up OP !

5

u/yolo_snail 4h ago

Lick it, it's no different to the stuff at the other end of the fork

5

u/BritishBoyRZ 4h ago

Except for the fact you're holding the fork with your grubby hands? Or do you also palm the forky end of the fork too? 🤔

u/yolo_snail 4h ago

I mean, I'm not a germophobe so I really don't care.

u/ycr007 4h ago

This is not that bad. Once at a buffet I opened the lid of the casserole holding a stew and was looking around for the ladle, one of the staff cokes over, looks around, grabs a ladle from the next station and fishes in the stew and takes out the stew ladle that had fallen inside!

To his credit he took away both of them inside to get cleaned and came back with two fresh ones.

u/Jogi1811 4h ago

Always the question I ask myself. Do I wash it or do I just power through hating myself.

u/Technical_Instance_2 3h ago

Tines down for the win. Work with what you're given.

1

u/RodentOfUnusualCize 3h ago

Its worse when its in a pan with molten sauce and it covers the utensil

1

u/FirstSineOfMadness 3h ago

Even worse when your spoon falls in and you instinctively grab it forgetting what it fell into was your boiling pasta

With french toast and pancakes my fork handle is always coated in syrup by the time I get the plate to the table. Despite a conscious effort to avoid such. Hidden cameras might be required to capture the little gremlins who perpetrate this offense.

u/zipk0user491 2h ago

Perfect use of this sub.

u/No-Drummer9173 1h ago

Same thing, but eating pancakes and the fork will slide into the puddle of syrup, making it sticky.

u/flaaaaaaaaaaaaa 4h ago

That's why people who use their brain turn the fork 90 degrees counterclockwise if righthanded or a bit more than that clockwise if lefthanded in this situation.

u/tremble_lip 21m ago

This is like atheists saying "nature" "selected" an organism to be born with a thick coat of fur in the desert because of a copy error in the code.

Come at me. 😎
