Yeah? How are you supposed to line up the sticks? And stir the soup? I think the "Mawashibashi" faux pas is to whip the soup like a madman, or to aimlessly swish it, and the translated listicle doesn't convey that.

You could surreptitiously agitate the soup as you pull out the solid contents.

Line them up by using your hands. It’s simple…

If you must mix soup, there is a spoon, or you simply bring it to your lips and it will mix as you tilt and sip from it.
