[0:00]I love chopsticks. You love chopsticks. Do you know the meaning of chopsticks? No. Do you wanna know? Yes. Maybe that's a good opportunity, right? We call this Hashi in Japanese, a word of Hashi means both chopsticks as I explained, and bridge as well. Chopsticks are seen as a bridge connecting people with life and food. Life and food. Yeah, so me, human, right? And eat life, so connecting like a bridge. Ah, okay. It makes sense. At a begging of a meal, placing chopsticks horizontally in front of you, separates the space beyond them as a God's area, and the space in front of you as a human's area. And when you pick up chopsticks, it shows that you're respectfully receiving the God's blessings. Oh, that's very interesting. Gaikokujin, it's like something to eat, but to Japanese, it's more significant. I mean, it doesn't have to be serious. Honestly, I don't know the truth behind the story. My grandma told me that. I love knowing the story behind things.
