My pet peeve – Table etiquette.


It has always been one of my pet peeves to see how some people, including some Upper Echelon people, or people who think they are, hold the fork and knife when they are cutting something.

Why do they hold their utensils incorrectly? They haven’t been taught properly by their parents.

So many people have different method of holding their utensils when cutting something in their dish. I refer to them as being primitive, caveman style. They have no idea how foolish they look.

Incorrect

There was only one way to hold your knife and fork. It is demonstrated adequately in the video above.

If you happen to be one of the cavemen, now is the time to change and demonstrate a little polish in your life. While you are at it, make sure your kids and grandchildren are schooled properly. Emily Post would be proud of you.

  1. It bugs me when women eat with the fork in their left hand after cutting. It seems lazy to me and improper, unless they are lefthanded. You cut, then place the knife down and put the fork back in your right hand. That’s how we were taught.
