Am I rooted?

I did a full root on my phone (both steps of Toast's method). Wifi tether works on my phone. However, when I go into android mate to delete programs like footprints, or FM radio it doesnt give me the option to uninstall them. Can someone tell me if there is a way to know if I rooted successfully, or alternatively, can someone tell me how to delete these programs from the phone? Thanks,

if wifi-tethering is working then you are rooted, because it requires super-user permissions,

Not sure how to uninstall the crap-ware though, you may want to hit the upgrade forums and flash you a custom ROM
