Heart shaped confetti would be great for a Valentine's Day celebration! Juan C gutierrez | posted on Jun 23, 2008 Hi, My name is Juan Carlos Gutierrez and I have a question. Recently a went to Colombia by a business travel. In a restaurant there I took a plate from the menu. The food came with a bake potatoes. I cut the bake potatoes with a knife. A partner of me told me that to cut a bake potatoes with a knife is unusual and show poor habit. My question is: Is it correct to cut the bake potatoes with knife or only with folk? What is the correct way for to eat a bake potatoes from a plate? Thank you very much. Juan C gutierrez | posted on Jun 23, 2008 Hi, My name is Juan Carlos Gutierrez and I have a question.
