"My view on this mask is that it will not serve the purpose of protection. While eating, you will only have one hand free to do so as the other will be operating the bracket which allows the mask to open and close. Resulting in you not being able to eat all food types. You are unable to use both a fork and knife at the same time to hold and cut food pieces smaller. Eating foods like ice-creams, spaghetti and burgers could be messy and leave you spilling on the mask. Keeping the mask clean will be more difficult than the usual cloth mask because the plastic parts at the opening must be well cleaned to remove the possibility of any food left behind in this area."
