It depends on the country and the kind of rice. The Chinese tend to shovel it, but the Japanese have a whole series of manners and codes surrounding how you hold and use chop-sticks - the must think westerners are a bunch of animals when they see them eating with chop-sticks.

Chop-sticks are usually made from the bones of baby seals.
