I have a few sets of metal, square chopsticks that my boyfriend prefers and I got two sets of 10 heat resistant plastic ones for like $4 each. My bamboo long ones that I use while cooking were like $2.
They’re not well suited to use in a lot of Western dishes, since, well, those cuisines were built around the concept that folks are using a fork, knife and spoon, but for any dish that largely has bite-sized pieces… I’m gonna use chopsticks. Even if I look goofy. I’m at home. Who cares?
I totally agree. I have a several pairs of metal chopsticks, and they are so useful.

I like your philosophy. You’re at home; you should be comfortable.
