What do you like to use more while eating? Sure, napkins usually have the "while eating" designation, and paper towels are usually used for hand drying and soaking up messes. But which do you really like? Do you prefer the mega cleaning capabilities of the paper towel? Is it too rough for such things? Is the delicacy of a napkin too much? Just right? Do you find them inadequate?

What could possibly come of this? What could it all mean? Who will win?!

I like those paper napkins that have the like consistancy of cloth. They're awesome when your eating hot wings. Very Happy

If I'm holding something I'm eating inside of a paper towel/ napkin, I'd definitely prefer a paper towel. Sometimes if you're holding something in a napkin you end up eating some of the paper.

napkins are more elegant like for a dinner party. paper towels are for barbeques.

that amused me to no end. i'm going to stop pronouncing my r's now.

and yeah, i'm all about paper towels. see, because, i'm all about efficiency. paper towels may be used both for meals and for cleaning up messes and whatnot. it's like killing two messes with one stone! very practical.

Bandanas! It's a barbeque place...
I thought it started in Texas...
Apparently I was wrong.
They're only in Missouri, Illinois, Colorado & Iowa (Iowa?!)

To answer your question. No, you're not missing much.
Just bbq meat that you have to put the sauce on yourself.

Ahh ... ok. I'll take your word for it. We have Bodacious here. And well, it's really good.

I don't really like their napkins, though ...

I'm torn on my answer still.
