What kind of chopsticks are the healthiest?

Bamboo chopsticks are the first choice. They are non-toxic and harmless, and are very environmentally friendly. You can also choose natural wooden chopsticks. On the contrary, chopsticks coated with colored paint should not be used, because heavy metal lead and organic solvent benzene in paint are carcinogenic and will seriously endanger people's health.

Plastic chopsticks are fragile and easy to deform and melt after being heated, resulting in substances harmful to human body. Bone chopsticks have a good texture, but they are easy to change color and expensive. Metal chopsticks such as silver and stainless steel are too heavy, feel bad and have strong thermal conductivity. Eating overheated food can easily burn your mouth.
