I mean that I try to use the fork to keep the food from moving
around but when I cut with the knife I cut the part that the fork
is under and then all of the food is free to move around. No! I
do not want you to shut up. You are being very helpful.

Hehehe, no offense taken ... Hope you're not either ... Eating
with my hands
is probably appalling to you and I'm sorry to offend you. ...
So I didn't
understand an do now, how do you mean cutting food out from under
the fork?
If you want me to shut up because I'm not being of any help, I
will. Smile
just say so,
No, is the answer if it is no. I'm really sorry.

Hi. I am trying to cut the food for myself but I do not like
cutting one
bight at a time. That is why I want to learn how to do it all at
once. Wen I
try to cut from the edge in, Every time I make a cut a new edge
is formed
and I can not tell what edge to cut from. I do not want to touch
my food
because that makes my hands messy and other people do not like me
touching
my food. I do not like touching my food either. When I try to
hold the food
from moving with the fork I end up cutting the food out from
under the fork
and then it moves around. I do not mean to offend you. That is
just my
feelings around the situation. Sorry for the long email.

Hi, Jessica,
Learning to cut food takes some practice. It's always best to
start from
the edge and work in; if you are cutting it for yourself, perhaps
cutting
one bite at a time would be easier. If you are cutting it for
some one
else, such as a young child, you may need the help of a very
clean finger to
touch the edge of the food and guide you to where to make the
next cut.
Using a fork to hold the food in place also keeps it from sliding
all over
the plate.
Hope this helps,
Alice
