People who eat like this eat everything in this fashion not just steak. It is how they have been taught.x9200 wrote:More seriously, if the knife is dull and your steak more like a shoe sole this is probably the most efficient compromise between the etiquette and practicality.

...which raises the question, where the hell do you go out to dinner such that you know about the advantage of gripping a fork while trying to cut very tough meat?x9200 wrote:Oh, it does explain. Try to cut something hard holding the fork the proper way and most likely you will bend it

Holy canoli! (Brah, when's the last time you had a good canoli!)
So a bit of humour is injected into a thread asking why our 'Merkin brothers change hands after cutting food and this guy, PacificRimJob, sends me three quite abusive PMs . . .
She seems to be quite the PMT queen.
Ok, so . . . why doe you guys change the fork to the right hand after cutting something?
PacifiRimJob . . . 'ello darlin'
Hehe, I was just joking about pacificrimjob being a female . . . but it turns out she is one . . . single (no surprise) and 35 years old . . .
I thought Canadians were nice, but some of the blue language . . . whew, I almost blushed
