PICS: This is why chopsticks have that extra wooden bit at the end

The world will never be the same again now we know this.

First we found out we were eating Toblerones all wrong - and the real reason they're shaped like they are. But now the internet has just discovered one of the greatest culinary mysteries of modern times...what the f**k that little extra flat wooden bit on the end of chopsticks is actually for. If you just thought it was a random bit of wood, you're so, so wrong my friends. It's actually a little chopstick footstool which you can rest them on to avoid them getting dirty on the table. Spotted on The Metro, Twitter is losing its mind over this revelation. Now we have a place to rest them when we've given up after five milliseconds and decided to use the damn fork. https://twitter.com/bortofdarkness/status/696921020054302720?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/IainnB/status/696922169788538881 https://twitter.com/bortofdarkness/status/696922596735062016 https://twitter.com/atlantanz/status/696926298191589376?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/bortofdarkness/status/696931003764510720?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/reubenacciano/status/696953303817650178?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw
