I find it interesting that the Brits use fork and knife for everything including eggs, french fries, etc. Different place, different norm. No right or wrong.
Anyway, back to Deana. I have never seen anyone who eats cereal with their hands. It's not even a cultural thing - it's just laziness. Even in the most remote regions, they'll fashion a spoon out of a tree before using their hands for something like milk and cereal. Cutlery was invented to aid eating and even cavemen would laugh at that; that's just wasting milk.:joker:

As a fellow African your post really suprises me.You really never seen anyone eating cereal with their hands???
What are you talking about we would fashion a spoon out of a tree before using our hands??
In my home country and every other African counrty I have been to we always use our left over pap from the evening meal for breakfast the next morning..and guess what we eat it milk ..and shock horror we also use our hands.
I really can not beleive you as an African are saying it's not cultural ..it's laziness
