Chopsticks,
a pair of small even-length tapered sticks, are the traditional eating utensils of East Asia (China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam, the four "chopstick countries"). Chopsticks are commonly made of wood (yew), bamboo. Wooden or bamboo chopsticks can be painted or lacquered to decorate them and make them waterproof. Japanese etiquette Never use chopsticks to transfer something to someone else's chopsticks or someone else's plate or bowl. This is how bones are passed as part of funeral rites (see Japanese funeral) Always place the pointed ends of the chopsticks on a chopstick rest when the chopsticks are not being used.
