Jesus Christ, who chose the colors for that website?
Black text on brown??
Anyway, I am not really surprised. When I was in middle school we were required to eat burgers with fork and knife. Apparently using hands was "uncivilized". As I never really went with people anywhere, they briefly made me believe this is what most people actually do.
Haven't seen that since.
I'll eat a burger with a knife and fork sometimes, usually if it's a tall or messy burger!
It isn't considered normal though, if people's mild amused reactions are anything to go by.
Ah, you've never eaten a burger at a proper restaurant then
