I like brioche buns

The biggest crime is when the burger size and bap size do not work. I don't mind if the burger comes out the size, but if the burger is too small for the bap, so you get a bit that is bap only, then that is wholely unacceptable

Knife and fork is wrong, although if it's a monster burger then I sometimes cut it in half just to be able to handle it easily enough to get my gob around it

It doesn't matter if you eat it with the hands or with cutlery. What matters is the fabulous taste! 🙂

Sometimes I’ll snip a particularly big specimen in half with [b]gobbling rods[/b], but mostly it’s a handheld affair...

Brilliant 😆

at home, or in the office, always eaten by hand. bt in restaurants, I'm afraid the knife and fork come out. pizzas too.

burgers I do tend to just cut in half and grab, calzone pizza I once treated like a really big pastie, but got lots of strange looks form folk, and most of it in my lap.

if you can't pick it up because it's too fat / tall, deconstruct it then put it back together so it's manageable.
take the side salad out and put it on the side where it belongs.
chop the burger if it's too thick.
compress it.
a burger should allow you to take a full-gape bite.

This, but also I'm shamed to admit to also

I like eating pizza with cutlery

I think it depends on the pizza. Proper pizzas like the ones you get in france (I've never been to italy) are best eaten with cutlery but big fat dominoes style ones is hands all the way.

Forget burgers, I saw a guy eating a white bread sandwich with a knife and fork the other day, now that was wrong!

By which time you could have eaten it.

Happy to eat big burgers with a knife and fork. Couldn't really give a toss what others think.

A few years ago my forks started mysteriously disappearing.

I eventually tracked down why. I had a mate who'd come round for beers, we'd get a movie on and order pizza. He ate his pizza with a fork and once finished he'd pop the fork in the pizza box and close the lid. All unbeknown to me of course, when I then threw the pizza boxes in the bin.

For this reason, if you use cutlery to eat pizza, you are a monster.

Using only your hands of course..

I was working in Germany (Menden) last month and found a place called the XXL Schnitzelhaus, they did a 30cm burger and if you were hungry they'd do a double, sod the cutlery you needed a chainsaw to cut one of the things in half.

WTAF? You threw away the boxes without looking inside? There could have been perfectly viable breakfast left in there
