Years ago a coworker told me it's impolite (and unsanitary) to eat left handed in Ethiopia because of the traditional... uh... lack of toilet tissue in the region. Not normally fond of eating without utensils, by the way, I'd happily make an exception for this! Thank you for sharing and stopping by my humble blog. I bet it's especially tough not to wake someone else trying to sleep on a sailboat. I honestly can't say if my partner would survive such close quarters. ~grin~ And being left handed, might get left behind if I ever find an Ethiopian restaurant in case the tradition still holds. I've never liked insulting another's culture, especially when I'm sort of in their kitchen. Heh...
