Sometimes, I eat ice cream with a fork. I don't mind if no one else does it because its something I enjoy doing and I find that it gets the job done better.
Haha! I do this when I drink beer, which is rarely. I once suggested it to my husband while we were a grocery store, and a passing man looked extremely pleased.
Heh! I used to drink too fast for this to be an option. However I do have a can of beer in which I'm planning to drink soon and I have straws in the house too. I shall try it out and see what I think. :P
I'm surprised I haven't, either. So much so that now I have. My verdict was that it's better than "lip to can" but worse than "lip to pint glass". I plan to do it again, though. *nods*
