The Egullet mission statement is so serious! I am glad there are so many discussions like this one on the site. Does anyone other than Americans eat jellybeans?

Oh ok! LOL LOL! So you get all the benefits without the problems! That's a great deal! Returning to the subject I have learnt from being in a multiracial family and friends environment that the people we know don't always know everything accurately about their culture. My father tells people things about Chinese history that are just wrong but he is convinced he is right and he is Chinese so people believe him. It is interesting to read all the different answers here. Even the Koreans are not all agreeing!

Wow! This is my first time coming across a Korean family that has adopted a white child. Isn't it usually the other way around. I called my Korean friend's mom to ask about this issue. She is a very educated person from a traditional background and she does not know of these distinctions between chopsticks and rice for eating rice. But if you are not Korean does it matter how you eat it? I don't think so!

Hello everyone! Great to have found this site. It is like Food Network on the computer! Favorite Jelly Beans flavor is hard to choose. I like them all! LOL
