I'm a weird American, because I've gotten where I hate eating with my hands when utensils are available. Sandwiches and chips are about the only exception. I don't eat many chips though.
I went to this Ethiopian restaurant once where there were no utensils of any kind and you were expected to eat everything by sopping it up with this crepe-like bread they had. It was analogous to eating stew just by dunking your bread into the bowl with no spoon, or eating a curry using nothing but naan.
The food itself was good, but it was messy to the point of being a bit disgusting, and I don't think I'd go there again on that basis.
Never thought of that. Will try it next time m at a sushi buffet
