If you can’t use chopsticks to save your life, try chorks!
Panda Express, the Chinese food restaurant chain, have taken an interest for an innovative eating utensil that they will be offering in their restaurants, specially thought for those who have trouble eating with traditional chopsticks. It’s called the chork, and it’s the union of a fork with a pair of chopsticks, which have been developed by Brown Innovation Group.
The utensil is made with two chopsticks joined at one of their ends with a plastic fork sticking out, as if were an ornament which actually comes in handy when you’re still learning how to eat with chopsticks: it’s okay, we’ve all given up on chopsticks and picked up the fork instead at the beginning of learning how to use them!

Also, Panda Express has explained to the press that they also think of it as a way of representing the blending of Chinese and American cultures. Although they were not the first to invent chorks, they will be responsible for introducing the utensil to the general public.
