Title: Do you use silverware?
Post by: nicole on May 31, 2010, 11:24:32 am

I just realized how savage I must look if someone were to see me eating a meal. I usually eat in my car either driving somewhere or parked on my breaks. I just slice off a large chunk and rip at it with my teeth. I don't think I've ever used a fork.

Plastic bag of gound marrow/suet/meat. Sits in my car all day and eat when driving. Sometimes the mixture ferments in the warm car. Tastes divine   :)

Yes I do.
I use fork and scissors for beef.

I use a knife to sashimi fish and chopsticks to eat them.

Forget silverware. I never use that junk.  Unless its a sloppy mixture of sauces and stuff

I use a meat-knife to cut my muscle-meats sometimes. I use my teeth for things like raw wild hare carcasses as they have meats which a knife can't easily reach/sever. Other than a standard plate and an oyster-knife(and very occasionally a hammer) I don't use anything else.

I use a knife.  No fork or spoon.

I use a fork and knife for most meals. If I'm eating ground meat I'll just use my fingers.

No need to swear djr... 'I use a knife' would have been adequate, without the profanity..

I don't use any any cutlery, ever...

I use scissors, I can't even handle the slowness of cutting fatty meat anymore with a knife. Even with scissors its too slow, and I'm usually standing up cutting and eating. I usually just eat with my hands but I've developed less paleo etiquette - eating in front of the computer so I'll use a fork then. I still havn't figured out/mastered getting marrow out of a long bone without a tool of some kind. Certain cuts I've found hard to just bite off with ease.

Oh yeah... I've used the handle end of a teaspoon to scrape out the marrow.. every time. I just haven't been able to get any marrow since I've been in Brum =(
