New Diet

The Indian and Islamic populations of Malaysia consider the left hand to be dirty. You don't use it for gesturing, or for giving gifts. And you definitely don't use it to eat. So during my stay here, I'll be obliged to use my right hand to eat, to fit in. Maybe it'll be good for dropping a couple of pounds. But if I'm required to use chop sticks with my right, I won't be getting any food in my gob at all.

I wave my left hand at your silly customs...

Thank goodness I'm right handed. I don't think I could work chopsticks with my left hand. Do you want us to sent you a case of sporks?
