I'm sure all of you have heard of the Japanese eating utensil, chopsticks. Now that I live in Japan pretty much whenever you eat use chopsticks, even corn and peas! Chopsticks are made of Japanese yew wood and are given to guest at most Japanese restaurants.
There are many manners with chopsticks; You are not suppose to wave them in front of food dishes deciding what you want to eat, to bring a bowl closer to you by grabbing it with your chopsticks, grabbing a bowl in the same hand your chopsticks are in, and it is very rude to stab your food with your chopsticks or leave with your chopsticks straight up in your food, this is how the Japanese honor the dead.
