How to use Chopsticks Correctly 🍜

*How to use Chopsticks* - _Left Handed_ version: ►kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5PcnH1sosSdncU

[@itsjoannotjoann5070]

I guess he thinks we're all as dumb as a box rocks. The supposedly left hand version nothing but this same video but he's flipped the image.

[@LeesRandomVids]

I made no secret of this. In-fact not only does it say so in the description, and why, I also literally showed the screen being flipped at 14 seconds in. It makes no difference, the outcome is exactly the same, ie it makes it easier for left handed people to follow.

[@LeesRandomVids]

Yup. And you're welcome, I'm glad it helped. Have a great trip to Japan.. I'm jealous!!!!! 😃👍😃

[@SubscribersWithNoVideos-fo9yu]

one time, I was at a Korean restaurant and they only gave us chopsticks and I didn't know how to use them. it was embarrassing for an Asian to ask for a fork.

The method taught by this person is the most traditional and ideal way.

[@saroni634]

I hold chopsticks execly in the same way

[@afraidcomet]

It's the only correct way. Any Asian who argues you about what "constitutes" a correct way is just embarrassed that they can't do it.

This is impossible

This was an amazing vid that actually worked, so now I have gotten the hang of it, I just need to practice for muscle memory

[@LeesRandomVids]

Thank you!!! Yes you are exactly right! Once you know how then it's just down to practice and repetition for the muscle memory that makes perfect. The tip about practising with snacks helps a lot. Enjoy using them in the future! 😃👍

the bottom chopstick keeps slipping for me

[@LeesRandomVids]

Yeah it will for some at first, its practice.. practice practice and more practice. I know it seemed daft but the popcorn trick really works. The best thing to learn is to get some small food, like popcorn or anything and eat the lot using them, even if it takes u ages. I'd never used chopsticks before, then when I was away on holiday with friends outside a restaurant I ordered a fried rice dish and got chopsticks. I struggled but persisted and eventually ate it all with them... it took me ages and the food was completely cold by the time I finished and my hand was killing me but from then on I was able to use them and I got better the more times I used them. Grab yourself some popcorn or something and put a movie on and eat the lot using them, just keep practicing!!! Good luck! :D

It's because you should be bracing it not on top of the ring finger, but you should be using the ring finger for extra stability with that stick. So instead of placing it near the knuckle of the ring finger like he shows in the video, you should be placing it at the tip and you will notice a lot more control and you will have extra grip strength available with your stick use as well. Since you are not used to it yet you will still notice that your hand will cramp with use because you are doing a maneuver you rarely do. But over time if you use it a lot you will notice it becoming much easier.

I also found the above technique easier.when I used my ring finger to support it a bit.it was easier

Once you know how you should hold them, then it's all about practice and repetition until you can do it. The tip about practicing with snacks for the repetition helps a lot. It's about struggling through, trying to eat the snacks with them until it slowly gets easier. Good luck!

For anyone having trouble preventing your thumb from bending: change the angle of the chopsticks. The chopsticks have to be perpendicular to your thumb, it can't be slanted downwards or upwards which was what I was doing wrong.

[@LeesRandomVids]

Yeah it gets easier with practice too as your hand naturally adjusts to how it suits you best.

I was taught the method where you hold the bottom chopstick on your middle finger and only use your index and thumb to hold the top one.
