Depends if the keyboard I'm using is easily cleanable. If not, I avoid anything crumbly, drippy, or apt to leave orangey-coloured dust on my fingers.

Impress everyone with your chopstick skills, picking up spherical cheese puffs with the chopsticks, while leaving your fingers clean. Given the texture, weight, and deformability of cheese puffs, it's probably a lot easier than it looks.
Okay I gave chopsticks a try and it messed up my workflow. Before:

1. Type on keyboard and use mouse as needed. 2. Grab snack bite with left hand that leaves orangey-coloured dust on my fingers. 3. Move left hand back to keyboard.

After:

1. Type on keyboard and use mouse as needed. 2. Move right hand off keyboard or mouse to location of chopsticks. 3. Pick up and use chopsticks to grab a snack bite. 4. Put down chopsticks. 5. Move right hand back to mouse or keyboard.

See, no orangey-coloured dust, but no profit! Maybe I should build a foot-pedal-activated snack launching catapult or trebuchet.
