Asparagus, although they are taken with the hands, it is increasingly common to take them with the fork. If they are fibrous, you have
to chop them with the help of the knife.

The artichokes are taken with the hands, leaf by leaf until reaching the heart that is taken with the fork.

"The knife is never brought to the mouth. Nor does it lick or suck."

The peas are "loaded" with the fork, but they are not punctured. We can help each other with the knife to push, but we never brought
the knife to our mouths.

Raw carrots and "hard" vegetables may need the knife to be sliced.

The rest of vegetables, vegetables and salads, usually take almost all with the fork -depends on the type of preparation they have.
