Well, you were the first to ask if you were the first, so you get first
choice on a TFH.

I would modify my response some in that I don't mind using my fingers if
they will not get dirty or require copious napkins to clean them. I
don't mind eating Indian style or Ethiopian and picking up food with
bread but I'm not very good at it and tend to eat more bread than I
really want.

I agreed with a couple of exceptions... like when the meal is an "eat
it with your hands" type. Deep fried chicken comes to mind, not that
I've eaten any deep fried chicken in decades. As far as any other
chicken dish, don't put it on my plate if it has bones. In fact, I
ask pointedly in restaurants when they don't specify boneless on the
menu and won't order it if the answer is "yes, bones". OTOH, what are
short ribs without the rib? I don't actually *order* them, I mooch
off hubby's plate so I don't have to deal with those bones either.
Steaks *never*, never, never with a bone. On the rare occasion I eat
steak in a restaurant, I'll order a boneless cut. Back in the day
when I used to buy bone-in steaks - I deboned them before cooking and
saved the bone for stock.

I know there are people who eat sandwiches with a fork. Hey,
there are people who eat pizza with a fork and knife. I imagine
there are people who eat nachos with utensils. But they aren't
me or anyone I know. What's wrong with finger foods? Maybe
I wouldn't order them on a job interview or something.

Whoever heard of eating ribs with a knife and fork? (laugh) You
out there, Damsel? I like my ribs on the bone, to answer the
second question. And my chicken, and my pork chops. I like
my corn on the cob in the summertime. Why, I eat cherries from
a bowl, but no one pits them for me first!

If someone's on a liquid diet, this might be their survey.

Dude! I was just thinking of trying that place. How was it (other than being
very empathic)? I've been on the search for the perfect bowl of Pho lately.
My favorite so far is Pho Xe Lua in Chinatown.

I usually have no objection to whole spices and/or bones in the food on my
plate (even tho' Jack objects to the bones on his) - and yes, I do think
it adds to the flavor while cooking... However, when it comes to things
like oxtail stew that also has those small or tiny bones in it, I have
often almost broken a tooth because I didn't realize the little ones were
still lurking there after removing the bigger ones. But I do hate trying
to eat 'boney' fish even if it has teeny-weeny bones in it - that's why I
tend to give a lot of fresh water fish a miss - because even if it's
'filleted' those damn bones manage to stay there, somehow.

My favorite Pho place (and several others I've been to) uses large
washable plastic chopsticks, which seem to work well. I think I would
have trouble with Japanese disposable ones. The restaurant does provide
Chinese-style soup spoons but not forks. The chopsticks, spoons, napkins
and various sauces are available from a holder on the table.The waiters
seem to be quite amenable to producing forks if asked.

Never did master chopsticks, but I do bring 'em home for propping

The bones give a lot of flavor to the meat. You're missing a lot of
flavor .... but whatever makes you happy ;-)

I despise those things... too awkward and slippery for this round

Ugly as most of them are (and the cheap ones split badly too), they
are easier to handle and grip better than those plastic monstrosities.

I'm not missing any flavor and I've eaten enough bone-in steaks in my

"flavor" are delusional.

I feel exactly the same way. I really cannot stand to have greasy
hands, wine glass or no. Anything on my hands, like if you're breading
chicken, I wash my hands like five times. But I can eat a sandwich
without making a big mess. Ditto nachos, I grab some un-cheesed
part.

And I am not eating pizza with a fork. You pick it up, fold it, and
eat it that way, the RIGHT way.

That's because Chicago Deep Dish isn't pizza. It's a casserole.

And why do they call pizza a pie anyway? It's bread or pastry with sauce
and other toppings...Good too!

Chicago people are tough... they can take it.

I didn't know there was a debate. There is "Pizza" and then there is
something called "Deep Dish Pizza"... which is good, but it isn't "PIZZA".

I mean, if they can call it "pizza' then why not call a Calzone a pizza?
Or you should be able to call a Stromboli a pizza.

Calzones, Strombolis and Deep Dish pizza may all have the same
ingredients that a pizza has... but they are not PIZZA.

> You probably never set one foot in Chicago.

Huh. Both feet and all the rest of my body... many times. I love
Chicago food, from the hot dogs to the Parker House rolls to the Italian
Beef sandwiches. I even like that Deep Dish Pizza.... and I call it
pizza to keep the peace... but deep down, everyone knows it really isn't.

It's a matter of perception. If you can't tell the difference, then FOR YOU
there is no difference. But I can tell the difference, and I'm by no means

A bone in a steak adds absolutely no extra flavor, a steak doesn't
cook long enough for the bone to make a flavor difference... in a
steak the bone is purely for esthetics and to prove it's the cut of
meat you paid for... and some like to suck bone, well, they simply
love to suck. Now a large hunk of meat that is going to be oven
roasted then the bone does make a flavor difference... when braised
the bone makes a huge difference. Actually if it's flavor one is
after it makes more sense to filet bone-in steaks and save those bones
for soups... I often do just that.

I agree on the flavor, but it can make some difference on texture as it does
cook a bit different around the bone, depending on how it was cooked.

It depends on where I am at. :-)
At home, no big deal. I can get up and wash my hands.

If I am eating something "messy" at work (such as ribs or chicken on the
bone), I will don a fresh, clean pair of disposable gloves to eat with
and I've had co-workers comment on it as a very good idea, and have seen
some of them do it since.

The reason I do that at work is because I may be interrupted in the
middle of my break to have to run back into the lab to do something
(such as issue a unit of blood maybe) so all I have to do is strip the
gloves off to have clean hands and don a fresh pair. :-)

A real time saver when it counts.

These are gloves which your employer provides for medical work, right? Not
