one of the two thin, typically wooden sticks, used particularly by people of China, Japan, etc., to eat food
Chopsticks are slender, elongated utensils traditionally used for eating in many Asian cultures, particularly in China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. Typically made of wood, bamboo, metal, or plastic, chopsticks consist of two tapered sticks of equal length that are held in one hand and used to pick up and manipulate food. Chopsticks are essential tools in Asian cuisine, allowing for precise and delicate handling of various types of food, including rice, noodles, vegetables, and meats. They are often paired with a small ceramic rest to prevent them from touching the table surface when not in use. Chopsticks come in various lengths and designs, with different levels of tapering and surface textures to accommodate different preferences and dining customs.
