Check out these....
The World's Most Versatile Travel Chopsticks, TripStixx

I wish I had found these when I was buying corporate promotional gifts.
I would love to have a few set with my own design on them.

I'm not going to say yes or no because I can use them...I just don't know if I'm doing it right. I'll google it and see...

I dunno.. It's just something I picked up while going to Chinese restaurants frequently when I was 13. I also picked up a love for curry at that time, too. Haha.

I don't really see what's so difficult about using them...

Yes, even long before I came to Japan and used them on a constant basis.
I haven`t the slightest idea where and when I learned to use them, it certainly wasn`t at home as no other family members can manage at all.
I just... could.

I wish every time I try to use them I get what ever I'm eating all over me

Nope. ):
When I was little, I could use them very well, but now it's just a very, very sad attempt. :\

Of course I can use them, lol. But I still have trouble from time to time...this is only because I don't have very much Japanese food to use them with!

I dont use them at home, but i use them when i eat out.

Excessum 05-15-2008 02:34 AM

Yes... and recently i have come to conclusion that it is often easier to eat with chopsticks than with a fork... I'd love to get myself a pair to use at home, but there are just no shops to buy nice chopsticks around here and i am not a big fan of the disposable wooden ones >_<
...the spoon is still irreplaceable in most situations though.

Tyrien 05-15-2008 02:57 AM

Yup, got myself a pair. I use them when I happen to be bored and hungry at the same time.
