‘God in his wisdom has provided man with natural forks - his fingers… it is an insult to Him to substitute forks for them when eating’

a Roman princess cause they never called themselves Byzantines and the term only exists cause of a German historian calling them Byzantines

in finland people poked wounds into their mouths when forks were first introduced to the royals, and possibly die because of infections that followed

The Church never uniformly issued a formal condemnation or ban on any type of cutlery, however it was a common view that forks were too extravagant

Fun fact; after they were unbanned men refused to use it because the fork was too “feminine” (as women would use it to not get their hands dirty)
