Are quesedilla's meant to be eaten with your hands like a pizza, or with a fork and knife?

What about open-faced sandwhiches? I ordered one today, not realizing it meant no piece of bread on top, and got a giant sandwich with a giant knife. Am I supposed to fold it or something?

Fork and knife in public or with wife/gf/fiance.

Hands at home alone or with other guys watching the game.

Make sure you wipe front to back.

Fingers.

Paper for wiping. A fork or knife would hurt.

Such and obvious and yet pointless question that you first posed I wanted to make sure you had that issue taken care of too.

Asparagus is also not a finger food, despite what loophole you may think you've found.

When I go to Indian restaurants (not Tabla or Tamarind) I eat with my hands.
