February 6th is National Chopstick Day

Yes, there is a National Chopsticks Day.

Whether you have realized it, every year, February 6th is Chopsticks Day. Chopsticks have been around for at least 5,000 years and although other utensils have come along, they still retain their utility.
The tale goes the Confucius himself warned people to not use knives at tables because knives were representatives of slaughter of animals. No wonder Confucius was a vegetarian.
