And yes, we HAVE arrested someone who violated this law!

Should you eat pizza with knife and fork?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

if it really hot and has a lot of toppings so that it will make a big mess, then yes, but, normally, just eat it with your hands if possible. but, make sure to wash them first- well most of the time.

Another common way to eat a pizza is to partially fold the slice. One has to take care doing this if it is hot or has a lot of toppings, since the toppings and cheese can spill over that way. In that case, get a plate and utensils, and either eat it with utensils or at least eat over a plate and use the utensils to eat or replace what falls off.

I was indeed Saturday Night Live and I think it was in the 1980s. It was some kind of Candid Camera parody which took place in a diner. They showed the fork being left on the burner and an old lady eating cheesecake. I am thinking it would have been done during the Christopher Guest years as the show went from being live to having more filmed comedy.

I only saw it once and I was quite young. I was searching for it today as it should be on streaming Netflix.

Best I can do.

Yes it was a parody with "Allen Funt" The Hot fork trick!

I even remember the skit dialog ! lol

(allen funt - whispering in the background..."this poor lady thinks she biting into some "cool -creamy- cheesecake"...wont she be surprised when -all she gets is a mouth full of seared flesh!!! (allen funt laughing .

the old lady bites in...freaks out in pain ..almost falls off the diner stool.... and if you watch close the fork actually STICKS to the roof of her mouth as she reacts !!! LOLOLOL way funny ! good times... good times !

That is a good way to get sick. Dogs have a lot of bacteria in their mouths, contrary to a common urban legend. They lick their anuses and genitals with their tongues, and many dogs will eat rotting animals and even feces! Do you want to share a fork with those germs?

  • When eating long noodles or spaghetti an individual should pick the noodles up with their fork in their right hand and with the left hand use a soup spoon and then twirl the noodles on the fork by pressing it against the spoon and then eat the noodles off your fork; this prevents splattering the noodles all over the place.
