Default Should I break up his food?

Hi everyone, how are you all? 🙂
Bambi is doing good he's not as active as he used to be but he's doing good.
I have started noticing recently that he has completely stoped eating his bigger pieces of food. He's currently on Harry Hamster food and he's been on it for a while, he seems to really like it. I'm aware that there are foods made for dwarf hamsters but I've tried a few different ones out in the past and he didn't really seem to like them. Plus, I wouldn't want to change his food right now because he seems to like it.

I just wondered if it would be better to start breaking his bigger bits of food up? He still has all of his teeth and they look pretty healthy - they're not overgrown or anything. However I'm worried about breaking it up because Bambi doesn't use any chew toys he has lots in his cage but he's never used them so, he mainly keeps his teeth down by eating his food. So I'm worried that if I break it up it his teeth could become overgrown??

I'm probably just overthinking things as usual but I just want to make sure that he doesn't lose weight.

Thank you 😊
