GOP presidential candidate John Kasich didn’t score many points with New York pizza lovers Wednesday when he ate his slice with a knife and fork.

Mr. Midwestern Manners resorted to silverware Wednesday at Gino’s Pizzeria in Howard Beach, Queens, where he went for lunch following a town hall meeting at a nearby church.

The Ohio governor cut off a big bite and picked up the cheesy goodness with a fork.

Mayor Bill de Blasio was widely mocked when he did the same thing last year on Staten Island.

But Kasich seemed to realize his faux pas: He finished the rest of the slice with his hands.

Later, he went behind the counter to greet staff, and handed out free pizza to startled customers.
