Relationship Advice Expert April Masini

Advice Seeker: Dear April Masini,

I am Asian and my family eats most every meal with chopsticks. However, I realize that many Americans do not use chopsticks and that they're not always appropriate. When is it OK to use chopsticks and when should I use a fork?

Utensil Confused

Dear Utensil Confused,

There are many foods that chopsticks are not appropriate for, though they do look nice and sophisticated.
