What are some foods we eat with our fingers?

And you can hardly imagine using a knife and fork….

We typically eat with our mouths, not our fingers. Well, the rest of us do, I think…

Hot dog on a bun. (I do use a fork and knife when I eat a hot dog with rice)

Basically, anything on a bun or sandwiched between two pieces of bread I eat with my hands. The exception I can think of is a croque monsieur, that I eat with a fork and knife. Also, if a sandwich or burger is piled to high I sometimes use a fork and knife, but it isn’t my preference. It doesn’t taste the same for some reason. I think it’s because the bread maybe gets a little squished down when you eat with your hands.

Snack foods like chips and pretzels.

Dried fruits like raisins and apricots.

Ribs that are cut across—the little pieces, I don’t know what the cut is called. Other ribs I sometimes use a fork and knife, it depends.

I’ve never succeeded in getting a fork up in there.
Ha! Beat you to it, limey. Or do you have help for that?

Dutchess_lll's avatar

Mashed tatoes and soup?? Sounds like fun, anyway!

Poo. Babies do it.

^^Funny, one of the things I don’t like about cupcakes is the expectation you eat it with your hands. I didn’t mind as much when cupcakes were smaller with less icing, but now they are difficult to eat.

I avoid eating with my fingers as much as possible, I don’t like them getting sticky. For instance I eat burgers, all kinds of chicken and pizza with a knife and fork if possible. It’s silly I know.

jca2's avatar

I’m with you on that, @nerdgirl578. If I do get food on my fingers, I am really big on getting up and washing my hands. I can’t stand having sticky fingers and food smells on my hands. It’s one of my quirks.

@jca2 Yeah, I wash my hands a lot when eating certain snacks as well. It’s a quirk, but at least we’re not alone :)
