Why we use a knife and fork
The reason why we use a knife and fork to eat is because if we use our hands, we might get sticky hands, and if you go on a computer and touch the keyboard, you will make the keyboard sticky, then someone else will go on there and touch the stickiness and they will have YOUR germs.
Keeping Clean
The reason why you use a knife and fork is so its not messy and you keep nice and clean. If you use your hands your hands will get very sticky, dirty and you will spread germs.
Bite Sized Pieces
The reason why we use a knife and fork is so that we can cut it into bite sized pieces.
YOU should use a knife and fork to eat because we could get sticky or dirty hands, you can spread germs too you know!
