Party People Chopsticks
What it is: A set of "trainer" chopsticks, for the digitally impaired.
Why we love it: We've got a lot to say on the subject of making chopsticks accessible to all. It may be a small battle, but it's one we want to fight, and so fight it we shall. Chopsticks, many protest, are difficult to use, and unwieldy, but we feel this complaint is borne of lack of experience on the part of the user, not any failing with chopsticks themselves, which seem pretty handy to us. You may know some chopstick novices yourself, possibly some who would like to be better with chopsticks, but have trouble managing. These clever trainer sticks may be just what your novice sushi eater needs to finally break free of forks and move up to the sophisticated world of chopsticking it. They're connected at the top and slightly springy, to make using them a breeze. Great for dinner party hosts who are branching into asian foods, or anyone who wants to improve their culinary dexterity.
Where to get it: From Flax Art for a dextrous $15.00
