The first time I encountered the infamous Bullet Train in Japan, it whizzed by so quickly I didn't have enough time to turn around to appreciate its speed, but at least I can fully appreciate the Bullet Train Chopsticks.
Of course, the Bullet Train Chopsticks may inspire you to eat fast, which is not a great thing for a quick eater such as myself. Yet for $8, I would love to have a set of these kitschy utensils.
