How to eat meat, chicken and chops.

Meat is cut with a knife and fork. If a platter of meat is passed to you, take only one large slice or two small slices at one time. You may take more meat when the platter is passed again.

Pork, lamb and veal chops are eaten with a fork and knife. Spear the plump end of the chop with your fork and cut out the centre part. Then cut and eat this part, one or two pieces at a time. With your fork and knife, get as much meat as possible from the remaining bone. If there is a frilled paper panty on the bone, you may hold onto it with your fingers and take out the meet with a fork.

At picnics and barbeques, fried chicken is eaten with the fingers. A knife and fork are used at other times. Spear the chicken with your fork, and with the

  knife strip the meat from the bones. Whatever meat you can’t get with your fork and knife should be left on the bone. Gnawing on the bone is suitable only for the most informal occasions. Other birds, such as duck, pheasant, Rock Cornish hens, are eaten with a knife and fork
