I'm glad you all like this, but please make sure any time you write in a language other than English, you include an English translation underneath. Thankyou.

Anyways, this is making me drool just by looking at it! Delicious. The only thing that bugs me is that they have chopsticks lying right by their plate, yet they're eating with a fork. :p

Three things! And this is in general, not to any one particular person, as I read all of the comments posted to my creations.

First, I am a girl!!!!!! It is indeed more polite read profiles or ask questions before making assumptions.

Second, allow me to explain a little bit regarding all the "why they eat it with a fork?" comments I keep getting. Okay, in making food, I cannot change the actually animated behavior of the simmie preparing and eating the food. I'm not saying it's not possible, I'm just not trying to go that deep. Sorry. I can only change the shape of what's being prepared and eaten. Basically, though it says fried catfish, technically, they are still eating salmon. Anyhoo, so once I get an idea of what I want to make I clone a maxis food that resembles the preparation phase as close as possible, even if they are going to eat it improperly according to what I'm making. I think it's better for them to prepare it right and eat it wrong than vise-versa.

Other thing, I don't like to make a food and it's just that one little thing on the plate, example, the wings I made. If I clone a food that requires a simmie to pick it up and eat it, and I have say five things on the plate, they will ( and I have tested this) pick the whole thing up and bite it as if it's just one thing. So to give you all those nice full plates, there has to be one little flaw.

Third, I get my plate designs from searches of the actual foods I look up, and I mostly come across a lot of Asians restaurant sites. So the chopsticks are apart of the actual plate, which is why simmies don't use them. They're just a design effect taken from a picture. I just go by whatever I find since I've never even heard of these dishes. I don't try to, or mean to, offend anyone's culture, so I'll just keep the maxis plate if I'm not sure about what I'm making; or it would be even more helpful if one is requesting a food to provide a picture of the platter it's served on.

Anyhoo, I hope you all understand and continue to enjoy, if not, just pop me a pm.

Eris, i have created a Global mod for those who want to have chopsticks in their game for foods,
i created it and posted the link here for your sanity and everyone else who created foreign foods lol

To everyone else:

Chopsticks have been asked for in foods for a long while but are unable to be created except in a global mod that affects all foods eaten based on the fork: The reason is EA or the SimPE creators? not sure who at this point? did not add those files in for the creators to alter in the food packages, the only files we can change in the food packages are as follows, the animations the mesh, textures & serve/eat plates/bowls & a few other changes to alter times ect.

the only possible way to add in Chopsticks is to create a global mod from the files in game which changes the fork to chopsticks as i so have done, this will affect all meals that use the fork. (except the in game "Cake" Fork)

Again Eris i don't mean to steal your post but this has been asked for many times and well here is the link:

Fork to Chopsticks

Ps: love the foods.
