Subject: Re: [AI] decent lunch etiquettes for person with visual impairment I believe it is the great discussion going on. Even me is facing the same problem in daily life. I also not be able successfully use the spoon to have my food. I always use my hand to have food in my house, or even in hotel. And whenever I attain some function like wedding party, birthday party, etc, as we can sea there will be a lots of food dishes prepared, so I always choose either "really don't know what says in English" chaumin, or momos, chapaties, etc but I also frightened to have rice along with various curries. Yes, I can say that I can use pork to have chaumins, boild eggs, etc. but as icecream is my favorite, I don't have any problem having ice cream with spoons, as we don't have to do any thing with icecream, just remove the sealed from the icecream and use spoon to eat emmediately. No need to mix up any thing like we usually have to mixed curry if available along with rice to have. Due to the same problem you've describe, I have totally stopped having some kind of dishes like pitza. -----Original Message----- From: AccessIndia [mailto:accessindia-boun...@accessindia.org.in] On Behalf Of austin pinto Sent: Monday, September 16, 2013 8:13 PM To: AccessIndia: a list for discussing accessibility and issues concerningthe disabled.
