[0008] + This proposal makes it easy to know which way to hold disposable chopsticks when you put them down and then use them again. Traditionally, when you put them down and then use them again, you would check both sides briefly before picking them up. If you picked them up without checking, you would sometimes end up holding the wrong side. To prevent this and to eliminate the hassle of checking both sides, various marks are attached to the disposable chopsticks. There are various markings, such as drawing lines, coloring, drilling holes, or cutting off corners. There can also be multiple lines and holes of various shapes. The markings do not have to be on one side, and they can be on the opposite side as well as the part where it is held in the hand, or they can be in the middle so that the person holding it can see it.
