Chopsticks?

Chopsticks are shaped pairs of equal length sticks that have been used as the traditional ancient culinary utensils in virtually all of the East Asian countries such as China, Vietnam, Korea, and Japan for over six thousand years. Chopsticks were first used by the Chinese and later spread to the countries through cultural influence or through Chinese immigrant communities such as Vietnam, Malaysia, Laos, Burma, North Korea, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and Japan, as well as in areas of the United States,[1] especially California and Hawaii, and cities in Canada and Australia with Chinese communities. Chopsticks are smoothed and frequently tapered, and are commonly made of bamboo, plastic, wood, or stainless steel. They are less commonly made from gold, porcelain, silver, ivory or jade. Chopsticks are held in the dominant hand, between the thumb and fingers, and used to pick up pieces of food. (Wikipedia)
