I eat sushi with my fingers. But I'm an ogre.

Most people eat sushi with chopsticks. Fingers are also acceptable, although maybe more old fashioned/more common in higher end omakase places. I don't think even children usually use forks.

Japanese rice is sticky, so it's actually really easy to eat with chopsticks.

Wait, there are people that use forks on sushi?

Unless it's some kind of wacky gimmick you don't need to do anything except pick it up with your fingers. The chopsticks are for other foods

Those of you saying eat sushi with your fingers, are you talking about rolls/nigiri? Surely you wouldn't pick up sashimi with your fingers?

It's bad manners to eat sashimi with your hands.

The Japanese use fingers for rolls and chopsticks for sashimi. Saying that, Japanese sushi isn't topped with crap like it is in the US. I'd rather use chopsticks for most of the sushi I'm going to eat.

They usually use chopsticks for both. Fingers are only common at old fashioned standing sushi bars/fancy omakase places.

sushi aint got no face. All I know is that when I get my sushi from HEB I want an authentic japanese experience, some of you mouth breathers dont understand class and sophistication.
Talk about sophistication, when we have sushi we speak only Japanese and then dive under the table when someone says they see the Enola Gay fly over.
