    Chopsticks originated in China and later spread to Japan. They are typically made of bamboo or wood, ranging from 7-8 inches long, and are used to pick up and eat food by holding one chopstick between the thumb and fingers while moving the other chopstick up and down. Traditionally, wealthy Japanese used silver chopsticks due to a belief that if food was poisoned, the chopsticks would turn black, whereas Chinese chopsticks tend to be longer.

    Chopsticks are a utensil that people use to eat.


    They are very skinny wooden sticks that need to fit between
    your fingers.

    Chopsticks are made from either bamboo or wood and they


    are about 8 inches long for men and seven inches long for
    women.

    Chopsticks started in China and the idea spread to Japan.

    Rich nobles used silver chopsticks because they felt if their


    food was poisoned , their chopsticks would turn black.
    Chinese chopsticks are longer than Japanese chopsticks.

    I am going to pass out a pair of chopsticks to each person.
    Each person will get one brownie and will break off a little
    piece to pick up with their chopstick.
