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
