Yes I am, Philadelphia area. Is this a US thing? I never noticed it before and my wife (righty) and I had a very animated discussion about it the other night, lol

I think it might be. I’ve heard from British people that they find it weird that Americans switch which hand they’re holding it with.

This is a US thing. I live in the Netherlands now and had to relearn how to hold a knife and fork because I felt awkward being the only person doing the switch.
