I learned how to use chopsticks in my college years. It's not that difficult. I was born in Wyoming to German/Irish immigrant descendants so I am not culturally your typical chopstick user, but I've decided that I'm going to keep chopsticks handy for salads from now on.

Yeah every time I try to shovel my salad with the fork, everything falls off the fork. When I try to stab it, nothing is stabbable but just falls apart or falls off the fork. Chopsticks are best. We have a salad bar at work and I'm going to bring chopsticks with me from now on.
It's perfectly fine to have a fork and a knife and a spoon and chopsticks with us while we're eating, and use whichever instrument is best for any given challenge in front of us. Because I have been struggling a lot with a fork and my salads, not everything is stab-able, only the center crunchy part of lettuce is stab-able and the rest of it is not stab-able unless the fork tines are as sharp as needles, but they're not, the tines on the end of a fork are pretty dull and they are not stabbing into this lettuce. And when I try to scoop it up it just falls off the fork. Don't even get me started on garbanzo beans, chasing those around the plate drives me crazy! And stabbing them makes them fall apart. I am struggling and I'm going to bring chopsticks with me from now on.
