Alloy chopsticks have the characteristics of high hardness, high wear resistance, high toughness and corrosion resistance, and are more durable, safer and more hygienic than traditional wooden chopsticks. The surface of alloy chopsticks does not absorb water, so it is not easy to be eroded and become old, and it will generally brighten with use.
The historical background of chopsticks:
Tableware has been used in China for a long time. The history of using spoons is about 8000 years, and that of using forks is about 4000 years. The upper limit of using chopsticks is uncertain, but it has a history of at least 3000 years. Forks were still used until the Warring States Period. A bundle of 5 1 forks was unearthed from the Warring States tombs in Luoyang, Henan Province.
After the Warring States period, the fork may be destroyed, and records and objects rarely appear. The division of labor between spoons and chopsticks in the pre-Qin period was very clear. Spoons are used to eat, and chopsticks are used to eat dishes in soup. ?
Chopsticks were called chopsticks in the pre-Qin period, chopsticks in the Han dynasty and chopsticks in the Ming dynasty. "Book of Rites Quli Shang" mentioned that "those who have dishes in the soup must use them". "Wine Collection" said: "Bang, one is a beggar, so it is also a sandwich." In the Book of Rites, Zheng Xuan pointed out that "Yi is still encouraging". "Miscellanies of Yunxian" contains: "Xiangfan is waiting for him, with painted flower plates, wooden chopsticks and fishtail spoons".
Back to Chapter 22 of The Scholars: "The waiter brought a pair of chopsticks, two side dishes and a plate of bacon." Shen Congwen's autobiography, I read both a small book and a big book: "In front of a small restaurant in a small street, there is a big bamboo tube with chopsticks cut from bamboo."
