If less body and more soul is your New Year's resolution, we recommend the Chopstick Diet, especially if you've never used them before. To make this diet truly effective, we suggest three main food groups: 1) peas, a one-at-a-time green vegetable that won't make you fat even if you master chopsticks, 2) Chinese Button Mushrooms in Slippery Sauce which should keep you enthralled and unfed for hours, and 3) any delicacy put on your plate by a fellow diner (sea cucumber is a popular give-away). If all else fails, discard one of the chopsticks and start over.
