What is the right way to eat long noodles or pasta? Is it appropriate to roll them with a fork and spoon?
Twirl the pasta with a fork either by rolling it around a provided spoon or just use the fork alone, keeping the fork tip in contact with the plate without making noise. You wouldn’t think that there would be controversy about how to eat pasta noodles, but some feel that a spoon should not be used and some also feel that cutting the pasta into small bite-sized pieces is not proper. However, it should be fine to cut the strands to shorten them slightly before twirling. Slurping pasta is the only method that is NEVER proper. The best rule of thumb is this: whenever possible, try to avoid difficult-to-eat foods such as this when you are in an interview setting.
