When eating a vegetable, like green beans, should you stab them or scoop them with the edge of the fork?

Answer 1

STAB, then look up at everyone at the table and growl untill they look down afraid! muhhahahahaha

Answer 2

I had them for supper actually. I stab them. To much of a balancing act to scoop em' up with a fork. Get the little suckers to your mouth when you scoop em' and the tip off the side.

Answer 3

I had a very proper and classy teacher for one of my foods classes in college ( I am a home ec major) she told us that the proper way to eat with a fork was to scoop the vegetables...I still stab at them tho!

Answer 4

i try to quietly stab... scooping could cause the veggies to fall off of the fork and onto a garmet.... stabbing could prevent an embarassing moment when the bean decides to play victim to gravity.... plus, a fork is ment to stab food with.... otherwise you'd have a spoon ;o)

Answer 5

First cut them into bite-sized peices, and then feel free to stab away! Any sort of round vegetable should always be stabbed to prevent it from rolling to the floor. As long as you are gentle and quiet about it, you should be fine. Enjoy!
