- This burger is pretty big and messy. Maybe you could eat it with a fork and knife.
- No way, who does that?
- Swedish Northlanders.
- Well, they shouldn't. That makes no sense.

@Elena ``of Valhalla'' Swedish people eat pizza with knife and fork and I am not ashamed to do it on the regular.

You're Italian, no? Don't you usually get your pizza in one piece rather than pre-sliced and bite-sized?

Of course you eat pizza with knife and fork. Now of course, Swedish pizzas are often soft, doughey and crap, so you wouldn't be able to eat them with you hands even if you wanted to.

Burgers with utensils just make sense, when it's those massive ones at restaurants where there is so much stuff on it that they don't even put the top bread on because it's just fall off.

Then there was that guy on Seinfeld eating a Snickers bar with knife and fork: https://youtu.be/SiTXriHRLXg?t=51

When I lived in Kalmar in 1996-1997, I went to McDonald's and see a whole room of people eating Big Macs with a knife and fork. Sibylla was the "real" Swedish burger and weirdly, people eat that with hands.

I caused great consternation at a picnic at Kalmar Folkets Park by eating fried chicken with my hands.

At least I had the anthropological skill to detect to tear apart and dunk my Semla and not eat it like a hamburger, in which case the white filling will explode into your face.

The romans up north also wore trousers, that's a barbarian abomination, not proper roman and italian fashion :D

(also, a pretty sensible adaptation to the local climate, but we don't talk about that while discussing fashion and the morality of clothing, right? :D )
