It is an actual law but it was made for publicity purposes. They did arrest a 91 year old woman for eating her chicken with a fork but the mayor pardoned her right away. The law was passed in 1961 and it is still on the books.

Is it against the law to eat chicken with a fork in Gainesville Georiga?

No, there is no law in any State on how to eat chicken. It is more of an etiquette issue. If at a fancy restaurant and a patron is served chicken legs they should pull the meat from the bone with their knife and fork and eat what they can in that manner. If at a regular restaurant (family restaurant) it is etiquette to pick up a chicken leg and it, but be sure to wipe your mouth and hands after doing so.

If you are out in a restaurant then you should eat chicken with a knife and fork. You can use your fork to pull the meat away from the bone or, cut pieces of the chicken with your knife and then use your fork to eat it. If in a high end restaurant you do not pick chicken up with your hands and eat it as that is not etiquette, but if you are at a family orientated restaurant this is acceptable.

How do you eat chicken with your fingers but still look like a lady?

If at a high end restaurant or a banquet one does not pick up their chicken with their hands. They use their knife and fork to pull the meat away from the bone. If just out at a general restaurant with a friend or a date you can pick up the leg of a chicken and take small bites; put the leg of the chicken down and use your napkin to clean your lips and hands. Wait a few seconds and do the same thing. With the the breast or thighs of the chicken use your knife and fork to put the meat away from the bone.
