Does anyone eat with their hands anymore

I am almost always using my hands including at restaurants. The food I eat requires fingers to be used. Muufo and Buskeeti at night for Casho require hands. There are certain things you can not eat with your fingers like Yogurt and have to use Qaaddo/Spoon.

Both at home and outside, I eat with my hands. I don't do this being culturally conscious but it is how I eat and know to eat best.

I genuinely think I'm sexually attracted to the macwis:noneck:
Also lol @ making up words like 'unbehilibed' and 'unbeveggied'. I was thinking I was illiterate for not knowing both words
Dw sis, you were not alone in your impure thoughts. I don’t know if it was the clothes, maybe. Or maybe, it was the undivided attention he gave his plate. The ravenous, messy eating of something, even though it looked bland, idk.
 
The only issue I have to avoid doing unconsciously is eating with my left hand because I was born left handed. If I am eating with younger adults, it is not an issue when I pick my favorite hilib with the left but older people remind me I am using my left hand, at which point, I switch to the right :ftw9nwa: Other than that, I am your typical nomad doing most things like they are used to in Somalia.
 
Yeah that’s not how germs work mate, it’s like saying I’ve caught Ebola on the left half of my body because that’s where I touched it.


But if you are washing your hands more than 15 times in every 24/7 not included when you are about to eat food(somalis bring along to the table a small basin with water for hand-washing before eating), you can count on your hands being clean.

Most adults who pray in Islamic culture are the cleanest. They have to battle skin dryness because of washing so much for prayer.

So, from cultural perspective then, Somalis who pray regularly have the cleanest hands.
 
Germaphobe cause I play basketball a lot


1 to 3% of your body weight is living micro-organism/Bacteria. As a human being, you live with Bacteria and it contributes to your weight to a whopping 3%. All these micro-organisms are safe. So you only have to worry about the ones from outside your body. Washing your body takes care of it.

And as far as people eating with their hands are concerned, like I said, if they pray regulalry, and wash their hands before eating, they are legit clean people and doing something acceptable.
