2 of 2 General Question - Dining Etiquette

What are your thoughts on people that cut their food up all at once when they receive it? EG the “standard" etiquette would indicate it is rude for someone to get a chicken or a steak etc and just cut it up all at once, it is considered polite to cut it piece by piece as you go.

Now personally I think this is fackin stupid, because you go out to enjoy a nice night and nice meal, now if I’ve got to follow a method like this “cut a piece of meat, put cutlery down, eat, pick up cutlery again, cut another piece, put cutlery down, eat, and repeat that process about 10 times or whatever, not only are my arms fed up I’m also fed up and I don’t see the point in it

Why would you not just cut it all up get the “job/chore" of cutting it up out the way and then you’re free to indulge and enjoy. Appreciate the standard view and I am a utter hypocrite for moaning as if I go out for an important dinner or to a posh venue I naturally follow that procedure of cut drop eat cut drop eat. But now I’m asking myself why do I do that, what is the point in it and it’s beginning to irritate me

So questions as follows

1) Do you do the cut drop eat piece by piece method or do you cut it all up at once and then eat?
2) If you do the former, do you consider it rude for someone to cut it all up at once and eat?

Sometimes you do have to slurp the hot drink, every time is excessive but sometimes it’s needed
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well I work with someone who sounds like a bath emptying every time he has a cuppa, it’s annoying beyond belief
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Start slipping anti freeze into his tea, he won’t notice an immediate difference but over time he’ll become more and more unwell until eventually he’ll die of multi organ failure as a result of metabolic acidosis, problem solved - one less ignorant cuuunt in the world.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That’s not a bad plan actually, might give it some serious consideration

What? Who the fack cuts all their food up at once before they start eating? That’s what you do for little kids. If I sat down for dinner with someone and they did that I’d think they were a right oddball. Do you drop your trousers around your ankles at the urinal as well instead of unzipping you fly?!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What if the person has severe arthritis in their hands & can't use a knife?

Are they not allowed to go out for a nice steak because some no-mark like yourself might get offended that the person's partner has to cut it up for them?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Shut up Glenda you phanny, what an obscure example to have a paddy about. We are talking about unimpaired people here ffs, go put your tampon back in and have a snickers son.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Where in TFA does it mention unimpaired people you intolerant fuсkwit.

It appears you're the one with a paddy on with your faux hardman persona.

Maybe it's time to change your tampon for a fresh one as the one you are currently using has been up there so long it seems to have infected you with some form of verbal diarrhoea.

--------------------------------

On a different note: Why do most right handed people when using a knife and fork hold their fork in their left hand yet when using a spoon hold it in their right hand?

Cutting up a burger with a Knife and fork is bad, have seen quite a few posh toffs do that
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I usually see people thinking they are posh doing that. Mrs Bucket types.

Same with KFC.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Do KFC or McDonald’s even supply or give you the option of having cutlery?

Chinese food always seems to come cut up, they cut the duck up
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No they don’t - they shred the duck off the bone for you, that’s how it’s served! That’s like saying pulled pork comes cut up - this article
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Jeez, really, so your Chinese restaurants ONLY serve duck shredded?

You can't have something like 'duck with Szechuan sauce' or 'duck with green pepper & black bean sauce' or any other meal with sliced duck instead of beef, chicken, King prawns or pork?

You need to change your Chinese restaurants.

I’m at a BBQ at the mo down the coast and I just had a lovely tasty burger.
It was dripping with lettuce, cheese, ketchup and mustard so I cut in half.
Don’t judge me
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I always cut a burger in half, makes it so much easier to eat. Also less likely to end up with half the sauce over your face or down your shirt.

Because why would you cut a salad? It's like saying you cut your cornflakes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
WTF how are those 2 things even similar?

Do you have your salad in a bowl with milk, and eat it with a spoon?

Slurping your tea is as bad as saying "Better in than out" everytime you break wind.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I take it you stand behind people and inhale their farts.

Each to their own I suppose.

It’s facking obvious he’s talking about unimpaired people you donut, just because he doesn’t go to the length of adding a disclaimer to say ‘no offence to those with disabilities who need support with eating’ doesn’t mean we can’t make the reasonable assumption he means the unimpaired. You’re just looking for something to get out of your pram over, like a menstrual woman spoiling for an argument.
