            Cutlery to be used at the table was invented in Byzantium. Europeans initially thought the idea was ridiculous, as they were accustomed to eating food directly off the table with their fingers or biting mouthfuls directly from a grilled carcass.

      Do you eat dirt cookies as well?
      Using chopsticks has had a negative effect on some Asian cuisine also. Everything must be chopped up or smoothied before serving. You won't see large cuts of protein unless it is fish that can be torn apart like a culture.
      A T-Bone steak dinner with baked potato is impossible for the Chinese/Japanese citizen to imagine.

                Salmon, for example, is a predatory fish that tastes great. Never had dog or cat so I can’t say whether they taste good or not. But this is besides the point as it doesn’t demonstrate why eating dogs or cats would be morally wrong.
                Also, I’m just as friendly with cows and pigs as I am with dogs and cats, and I suppose that people who eat the latter two don’t place them on a pedestal like you do.

                Are you? Do you keep pigs and cows as pets and work partners? Have they eaten your salt, if you're genuinely asking why people feel differently about them?

                I don’t keep cows, pigs, dogs nor cats as pets because I don’t want a pet. I’m just as delighted to encounter cows and pigs as I am to encounter dogs or cats. I do understand why people feel differently about eating them but I don’t think those reactions are sensible.

                >why eating dogs or cats would be morally wrong
                It's because of coevolution. People that depended on dogs and cats for survival evolved to have an inherent like for them. Dogs had many different active functions like aiding in hunting, tracking, security, etc. Cats were used in a passive role to eat up rodents that were harming crops. That's also why dogs need constant interactions and cats are autonomous. We've only been keeping these animals indoors as "pets" recently, only a few hundred years ago they served valuable roles that humans depended on, which they did for thousands of years. It goes both ways, of course, domesticated dogs and cats recognize humans as friendly and would rarely attack a non-threatening person like a wild animal even if they are feral.
                The coevolution that happened with livestock is different, we domesticated them to be raised and killed. There is a level of affection involved since you will spend months feeding/raising/caring for them or they die, but we also evolved to have much less guilt when slaughtering them so that we could actually eat them.
                People whose ancestors did not rely on dogs and cats don't care about pets. People whose ancestors never had livestock might feel equal sympathy for them as they do with cats and dogs. Just remember that our modern world is very new and we existed for 200k years before the first word was ever written down.

                I don’t see how this would demonstrate why it’d be morally wrong, though, unless you think morality is determined by your inherent emotions of affection.

                that doesn't change the fact that you are commiting an act that has negative moral implications, though generally I would say the white rice is better for you than the brown. Most nutrition in plants is piss poor so you should prioritize A: freshness and B: lack of all contaminants. That can mean hulling the rice if it has worse contaminants.

                just because you are immoral and do not value your health and hygene does not mean your actions get to exist in a vaccuum. you buy chips? that makes industrial waste oils used as food profitable.

                Alright, those actions are immoral in the moral system you subscribe to. Frankly, I don’t really care about your ethics because that sort of thinking isn’t prevalent in the West.
                I don’t mean to state the obvious, which is that morality is subjective, instead what I’m saying is that the moral axioms you’ve apprently chosen aren’t widely recognised and therefore your reasoning doesn’t hold much weight from a practical point of view.

                Nobody is pretending that having an unhealthy diet has no consequences. I’m simply denying the relevance of your moral system because that is unquestionably related to its prevalence in society. Allow me to elucidate on this with a slightly hyperbolic analogy. Consider that we live in a society where moral norms are derived from the Old Testament. It doesn’t matter whether or not you specifically are an utilitarian and don’t mind working on Sabbath, the rest of the people will stone you to death for it.

      Mostly, the only reason you should buy an automatic is depending on how it actually is for you to drive. If you're in traffick all day there's nothing worse than starting, stopping, shifting, etc. Automatic just makes it easier to relax.

        >the only reason you should buy an automatic
        I'm buying my first new car in 15 years and just found out that CVT is more efficient than manual. Not by a ton, but it always used to be common knowledge that manuals get better milage.

      I went to sushi with my parents the past month. Holy shit, I didn't not realize they were so bad with chopsticks. Just use your hands if you can't use them, it's fine. It was painful to watch them fumbling around. I understand you want to get better, but you don't get better if you only use chopsticks two times a year.

    It depends on the food. Just use the best tool for the job.

    Yeah, but it's a handy little "showoff" skill. Looks good, on a date and I swear the servers and the chefs treat you better. Even if you're a little clumsy, they appreciate the effort.

    No. Using chopsticks for Asian food is fun. Stop being a baby, the food is made specifically for chopsticks and they add to the experience. Its on par with plating up McDonald's food, which is fucking rotten, and wrong in every conceivable way. Its made to me eaten out of a crinkle piece of paper and any other way is garbage and everyone knows it.

    Sushi hack: Get a normal makizushi instead of a reverse makizushi, ask them not to cut it into pieces, use your hand to pick up the roll, take bites at your leisure.
    Bada boom bada bing, now you can throw dice and eat sushi at the same time.
