    I usually eat with silverware, but I've tried the other options, except for 'nothing'. It's fun to just suck food into your mouth with lung power. ;)

    Teeth probably means something like pie-eating contests, where you're not allowed to use your hands. That said, there's nothing like feeling your prey's blood gush into your mouth as you pierce their jugular. :evil:

    Well...I chose "teeth" primarily because *everyone* uses theoir teeth to eat...unless their jaw is wired shut. :rolleyes:

    But *getting* the food to my teeth...I use a fork/spoon/spork. :p :rolling:

    Willpower, of course. I take the food from the plate with the force of my will and then it goes to my mouth. :p

    What Chev means to say is that the food is so bad, he needs to roll a Will Save check to eat properly. ;) :p

    Hands for fastfood: Pizze, fries, drumsticks etc.
    Knive: Pizze
    Spoon: Rice, soup. Almost anything actually.
    Fork: hardly ever. Only use it to grapple/pin my victem (better known as meat) and cut it to pieces with a knife.

    Is intravenous feeding the kind of feeding they use in hospitals and spacecrafts, for example? Some sort of probe in your nose that we Dutchies call Sonde?

    I usually use silverware, but I love using chopsticks when I can (sashimi, sushi, basically anything japanese or chinese).

    As for the answers (since there's always someone complaining):

    I tried to encompass all that I know the people around the world use to get food/nutrition into their bodies.

    I would think most people would use either silverware of some kind or chopsticks. But, the Polynesian islanders I know eat with their hands. I know certain handcapped people can't use/don't have hands, so they are fed with straws or through IVs. Hell, a cousin in California has no hands, which means he eats with his feet! Not to mention those with no hands and feet! (This is where the teeth answer comes in)

    Except for those that don't have teeth. Do you know how much dentures cost? :money:

    i do lunar-photosynthesis, what does that falls under?

    actually, chopstick. i eat potato chips with chopsticks even because that way i can still click and key WASD with clean hands. Bufflo wings, chopsticks too. Pick one, put in mouth, process, white bones come out; hands clean.

    Chopsticks mainly, as well as forks/spoons. I prefer not to eat with my hands (yes, even pizza or chicken wings... except for burgers... damn burgers) and get it all oily.

    I cannot live without my forks and knives!

    Except for pizza, which I eat with my hands (american style, baby! :shake: ), everything else I eat with a fork. Makes sense, as I eat an awful lot of meat. Especially medium-rare steaks. :yum: :yum: :yum: :yum:

    Rice I also eat with a fork, because I have no proficiency in chopsticks. :shake:

    I cast the spell teleport object to place the food directly into my stomach to skip the whole eating ordeal.

    Spoon and fork most of the time. Knives are extremely rarely used. Sometimes chopstick for Chinese and Japanese food. And on rare occasion with my fingers.

    I use my eyes. Videogames are enough to keep me going for days. :thumb:

    When that fails, I guess I use whatever the type of food requires.

    Unless I'm eating 'hands food', I use silverware.
