Out, order pasta with shrimp or something stuff one hand use or eatable with fork. If no choice DH does and I just accept i
Now that you mention it, I'm very conscious of what I eat in public. I have more trouble swallowing when I'm not paying attention or am self conscious. And I sometimes have flinchy hands. Never know when I'm gonna start a food fight, so I never order stuff that requires a sharp knife when I'm with friends.

My cousin with Parkinson's was in his brother's kitchen with a large sharp knife trying to cut. Scary!!!!! Large arm jerks. YIKES!!!! Told him he belonged to the Cousin's neurolically impaired Club with me. His mom had started a regular counsin's club earlier. Both fell apart. He then got kicked out of assisted living for punching a male aide (who probably deserved it).
