Question

How to eat in italy using spoons,knife etc..?

Answer 1

Place the spoon, fork, or knife in the same hand that you do in the US.  Use them the way you would at Thanksgiving.

Answer 2

Traditions are different in different regions of Italy (North, Sicilia, etc.). Some use a spoon eating pasta, some no. Some consider bad style to use a knife and suck better.

Answer 3

The Italians do not switch knives and forks, as Americans do. When both are to be used, the knife remains in the right hand, and the fork remains in the left.

Instead of cutting lettuce in a salad, you are expected to fold it with your knife and fork so that it forms a small bundle that can be picked up with your fork.

If you are served pasta, do not use a spoon for assistance in handling it. Instead, discreetly use a fork and the sides of the bowl or plate to twirl the pasta into a manageable bundle. Then place the entire forkful of pasta into your mouth at once; slurping the strands is considered poor manners.
