China has had forks for a long time, chopsticks were invented to save money during a population boom; they take fewer resources to produce, are easy to dispose of or store for reuse (if you are using metal ones), and can be made easily and quickly. They were also the perfect size for picking up little pieces of food; cooks started cutting food into smaller chunks to cook since it was cheaper (used less fuel).
IIN that my parents judge me for eating noodles with chopsticks?

The oil used in cooking is nothing but crude oil, in its extremities the oil could be extracted petrol with the flammability removed.
That's actually really interesting.
