I like my dinner served on Fiestaware.
I could care less if I have to use my hands to eat it.

Nothing makes dinner look 100% better then served on that stuff. My god I love it!

I like to cut all my food up first so i can then shovel it down really quickly, so a knife and an extremely large spoon does for me. Really narks my girlfriend, especially in restaurants...........whilst she is still admiring the plateful, i am reaching for the toothpicks.

You can't cut a 2" thick steak with a tiny knife, and my steaks barely fit on a small plate.

Hahahahahahaha. I can understand why.

I just hate to wait too long for my food. Especially in a company I don't want to hang out with too long (like parents and stuff).

This may sound somewhat neanderthal, but I like a large spoon and a bowl for almost all meals unless there is cutting involved, then I cut it up and throw it in the bowl, hehe.

Fucking spot on, growing up with a pack of wolves/four brothers, when the kill was put on the table things would get downright vicious and nasty. Subsequently the first one to get up in the morning ate every goddamned thing first. Being the oldest didn't mean crap when it came to food.

I normally don't eat fast.

Like when having breakfast: I want to enjoy my sandwich longer than 2 seconds.

haha... you have a good scientific mind so tell me, is 'running and eating' a variant or behavioral offshoot of the 'flight or fight' mechanism? Seems like it would be to me.

I would say its an intelligent compromise.
