aw, hec
Whenever I eat bbq ribs I use a knife and fork. I don't like to get the sauce all over my hands and face. I never have to use the moist wipes at Chili's. I think this is a perfectly adequate way of eating ribs but I am constantly teased.

This is also why I prefer ice cream bowls to cones. I don't like it melting all over my hands. Sticky fingers; gross!

Does anyone else do this? You're nuts if you don't. We are civilized, why not use the simplest tools of civilization to not eat like mongrel animals.

Why do you need a fork and knife when you have a mouth and the capacity to lean over :confused:

the primal satisfaction of tearing the meat off the bone with your teeth is an essantial part of the rib eating experience

The best part is after you eat ribs and get the sauce all over your hands, you need to get something out of your pocket.

jeez get primal yo. get messy in your own pathetic way unless you are wearing some nice poo poo but if its bbq rib time get yourself a drat smock or a raincoat or something and just hulk out on that poo poo like the primal carnivore you are instead of repressing that poo poo impotently like some sort of meek fuckboi or something ffs.

It's easier to use utensils then put on a raincoat to eat.

Just like a spoon and bowl for ice cream.

This is a metaphor, a Christian allegory. The fact that I have to explain to you that Jesus is the Warthog, and the Banana is drepanocytosis is just embarrassing for you.

I do this too for the exact same reason. I eat fries with a fork too. And pizza with knife and fork. I guess I just don't like hand food

I approve of ice cream bowls but for fucks sake order something else if you want to eat like a civilized human. Eating ribs is communing with our ancestors who had no more tools than spears and sharpened sticks

Burgers are ok as finger food, the bun keeps your hands from touching the messy inside. Otherwise it's like putting poo poo on a steak and stuffing it into your maw getting slop everywhere.
