Interesting. I used to hold the fork in my right the entire time, cutting with knife in my left hand.
Upon being informed that was a faux pas, I cut with the fork in my left, knife in right.
Finding it difficult to lift the food with my left hand, I intuitively adopted cut and switch and would eat with my right.
Noticing that no one around me (in Quebec) seemed to do this, I eventually adopted the European manner.
Now, following the Paleo diet, I frequently end up simply eating with my hands when at home. Feels great.
