Over the past weeks I have been learning from many kind people about how to eat with the right hand. Why? Because in Chennai, where I will be from January to March 2020, many people eat with the right hand. In the learning process, I picked up a few useful tricks: Try with the tip of your fingers to form, what you eat, into a little ball. Use your thumb to push the food from the tip of your hand into your mouth. Keep the palm of your hand untouched by food. Use your thumb to clean your hand. Avoid licking your fingers. Avoid using your left hand to eat. Why? Because the left hand is used primarily when you go to the toilet. Use your left hand to drink.
