Just because something is a certain way doesn't mean that it has to be that way.
This is about common courtesy and not about low standards of living on the third world.
If we keep on comparing to third world problems, then there is almost no point in about 95% of the threads here.
I wasn't talking about famine in the world Far from it. I was mentioning that someone I knew ate the worst possible, most unhygienic food imaginable and never got ill. It was her mindset.
Same with the tongs people. They don't even comprehend your point of view, it doesn't fit in their world view.
