    This is an addendum to my previous response. A major, culturally based reason many “old country” Asians resist using forks and knives when eating is that they consider it extremely barbaric to bring weapons to table.

    One reason to use chopsticks, is that a lot of Asian food is easier to eat if using Asian dishes & utensils. #2: actually, a fork & knife can be rather difficult to manipulate with no prior experience, and sometimes even when you’ve ‘done it all your life’.
