By the way, using your knife to pile up your food is about as far from pretentious as you can get.

I’m in Madrid, Spain. He was using his knife to place food on his upside down fork. I’ve also seen other people hold it upside down. It ain’t how we do it at Golden Corral, but whatever.

But she's talking about holding the fork upside down and stabbing the food with it, not piling the food on top of it, which seems almost impossible.  Wouldn't the food just fall off the fork?  

OH!  I found it!  This guy uses his fork upside down to stab his food, but keeps it upside down!  At :30 in the video, he piles is food on top of his upside down fork.  I have never seen that in my life.  Interesting. 

I did a little more research, and apparently, this is a European thing.
