OK, so I may have a little too much time on my hands but the other day I was re-watching The Sound of Music and noticed something a bit odd. When Maria has her first meal with the Von Trapps (the one where she sits on a pine cone) they all pick up their fork in their right hand and start shovelling food into their mouths. Now the Captain, being a stickler for manners and rules (and a hotty - he's like the original Christian Grey) strikes me as someone who would insist on a knife and fork scenario.
So is this an Austrian thing? Or American? Please can someone shed some light on this cos I'm having trouble sleeping at night thinking about it

AIBU?
To wonder why the Von Trapps have no table manners?
