Unofficial Etiquette Pollage

After hearing a discussion on the radio about table manners and cultural/national ways of eating, I got curious and decided to ask you guys about it. According to the program, there is more than one way people in Western countries use a knife while eating. I did not know this, which shows just how much I don't know about culture.

So anyway, a poll:

I usually do A, sometimes do B, and a lot of times (either way) I think about how strange it is to do all the hand switching, but if I do actually keep the fork in my left hand, I think about how odd that feels to me.

As a result, I eat a lot of potato chips. At least that's what I'll tell the doctor if he wonders why I haven't lost any weight.
