the spoon

[gareth]

it's iincreadible the amount of dinners that you can eat with a spoon. my hands have been particularly affected and i find things like using a knife and fork and typing a bit of an arse. so i hail the spoon as the new eating tool of choice and encourage people to give it a go.

 

and you can fit a lot more food on a spoon!

Oh, I'm with you on this one -- have been doing it for a while. I think I also just like the feel of a spoon? A big spoonful of warm spuds, dripping with butter, is better than a sharp forkful any day! And I hate chasing little things like cherry tomatoes around a dish with a firk -- spoons do the job better!

 

Hurrah for spoons! Ban the fork!

Hi Gareth and Elise

 

Have you heard of a spork which has prongs like a fork but also doubles as a spoon and one side is supposed to be used as a knife, I have never been able to master that one though and still have to get certain things cut up, mine looks like an ordinairy fork not with an enormous chunky handle!

I have a spork extremely useful, also use a fork with the big black spongy handle sometimes when I'm using a knife

I, on the other hand, have a big black dog who lays at my feet under the table whenever I eat. He would be so disapointed if I used a spoon as I would drop less food.

 

Regards,

the spork is an incredible invention and it has a wonderful ring to it's name.

 

one of my dogs has learnt the same trick of hanging around my feet at meal times but at least she has the decency to wait untill i've finished eating before she hoovers the carpet.

Sounds great for when I eat peas (they never stay on my fork, more likely to be escapeas on the floor). I'm not sure I could eat a steak with a spoon though

Hi Teen

 

That's the beauty of the spork, it looks like and can be used as a fork, but it also doubles up as a spoon, when needed!
