I can't believe after watching this whole thing, I still don't really know how chopsticks are made. Did confirm my suspicion that they come from trees at least. And it looks like making them in connected pairs adds a lot of work, and results in a lot of loss. It sure is fun to snap them apart, though!
@@monkeyboy9121 Monkey is correct, most of the modern chopsticks are indeed made from Bamboo, you can see the bamboo wood grain if you look close enough. this video most likely is very old, probably 20-30 year old judging from the camera quality, and the fact that this is a japanese chopstick factory which mostly closed down since most of these tpye of manufacturing moved to China
Literally using my throwaway chopsticks as we speak for my sushi dinner...they were sanded and rounded, yet still connected as if one piece of wood, but easily pulled apart. As throwaway chopsticks go, they're very nice, so I clean and reuse them.
im here because i was eating my sushi and could smell poop, discovered the smell was coming from the middle portion of my chopsticks, visually nothing but the smell was there. was checking too see if the factory workers touch them and my fears are confirmed
People could walk around barefoot, but us choosing not to doesn’t make anyone a bitch.😂 We’re an evolved species, and we totally have the right to act like it.
Goddamn those ladies sort through ALL of those chopsticks?? That's fucking insane, I wonder how long it takes them? I'd feel like that mountain would swallow me!
So they have some screwed up automation all they way up till a certain point where they get a bunch of old ladys to package the chopsticks up in paper? WTF This is inhumane and demeaning work!!!
Andrey Khorolets they're not made from bamboo; the chopsticks in the video are made from spruce. and if you read the japanese in the video, it says that all the waste and stuff made during the fabrication is ground down and sent to paper mills or fuel factories.
***** Good question. I wouldn't mind seeing wood used to make traditional chopsticks that will be used for years before being thrown out but to use wood for a single use item seems like a waste of lumber.
Do not fret about how many trees were killed, whether it is fast growing bamboo or spruce. Any respectable company is going to replant at least as many as they cut down. If they didn't then they would go out of business.
My wife and I are both manufacturing engineers, and we couldn't relax to this at all. We just got angrier and angrier with how much waste and unnecessary repetitive motions were used. Then again, Japan doesn't have the same OSHA standards.
The part where it goes from a neatly organized conveyor to a gigantic pile that gets hand sorted and restacked into boxes. So much wasted labor and time.
because look apart from the finished produce so much wood is being wasted or burnt as shown there. And I rather prefer recyclable chopsticks than use and throw
You have to mine iron ore for steel which uses a lot of energy and you have to use a lot of hot water and soap when washing steel chopsticks which is a waste of water, gas and the dirty soapy water is bad for the ocean. It's cheaper and better for the environment to use disposable chopsticks
@@naturalthing1 You may have a point. The wood almost certainly comes from tree farms, so the same amount of carbon gets sequester by the new trees as is released by the old chopsticks when they decay or are burned. So the materials themselves are carbon neutral. and the amount of carbon PER SET fro manufacturing, including harvesting, may well be less than the carbon released by producing the soap and heating the water to wash chop sticks. Carbon, like any other waist product is reduced by the economy of scale.
I agree. You can use them for many years.. also you have to wash those dishes so the soap and water is being used regardless there are chopsticks or not. I feel it should be disallowed to use trees for them. People learn to use decent forks and spoons . 🍴 .

This all came from the idea, if you're out in the woods and need utensils to eat with, grab 2 sticks. Simple way to eat.
I will never look or treat my chopsticks the same ever again.... im so sorry choppieee!
Choppie forgives 🤗

they can be made from bamboo too.

I cannot believe they make so many chopsticks with such little waste that must be a huge benefit for the environment

JAPANESE never cut their own tree. They like to use disposable chopsicks very much
Do they not wash the sticks? They've been on the floor and in people's hands! I didn't notice a washing before packaging...
ohh nasty

what were the parts that made you mad?
The part where it goes from a neatly organized conveyor to a gigantic pile that gets hand sorted and restacked into boxes. So much wasted labor and time.
Kumori im sure the people who are sorting the sticks are glad to have a job.
Kumori you and your wife must be smarter than the japanese....congratulations.
This is wayyy old my dude, they don't do it this way anymore
I wish it was translated 😭
Very cool. But so much of wood used and not even recycled.
How do you know
because look apart from the finished produce so much wood is being wasted or burnt as shown there. And I rather prefer recyclable chopsticks than use and throw

It is better to use stainless steel chopsticks which could be used repeatedly to save those trees that grow into such a size!
Alec Wu especially being that they’re only used ONCE.

Im so sad watching this video. Oh trees 😭
You can use woodprix, it has the best handbooks and ready instructions. You can learn much from them and make it yourself.
Gross, and we eat with that? No thanks
Bro wood chopsticks are good for the environment but you killing the trees and that environment
