pick and nibble

The habit of using, unnecessarily, two hands to consume a foodstuff.

The ardent pick and nibble practioner pulls small pieces from a food that is held in one hand and and then consume them with the other.

Usage of the second hand has to be superfluous to the task to constitute a true pick and nibble

The visual effect is repulsive and resembles someone playing with his/her food.

Popular pick and nibble fare includes: Pastries, pizza, canapés & sandwiches.

Please note that holding a bag of food (nuts, chips etc) and eating from said bag does not constitute a pick and nibble
