Chicken: Most chicken should be eaten with a fork and knife unless the meal is extremely informal (like a picnic). How to eat fried chicken is debatable at moderately formal dinners.

Hooper informed Dietrick that it’s against city ordinance to eat fried chicken, “a culinary delicacy sacred to this municipality, this county, this state, the Southland and this republic,” with anything other than your fingers. The 1961 ordinance was put on city books as a sort of public relations stunt to promote Gainesville as the poultry capital of the world, Hooper said.— The Times
