Does Julian Assange Use Cutlery When Eating?

A bizarre anecdote about Julian Assange has emerged in the wake of Assange's arrest by the British Government.
The anecdote says Assange doesn't use cutlery.
Business Insider says that instead of cutlery he chooses to eat hot food like pudding and baked potato with his hands.
The claim was made by Andrew O'Hagan, a novelist and a former ghostwriter for Assange who has since turned into a critic.
"He had three helpings of lasagne that night..."
"He ate both the baked potato and the jam pudding with his hands," O'Hagan wrote in 2014.
Assange was arrested and removed from London's Ecuadorian embassy on Thursday after Ecuador revoked his asylum.
