Who else goes through spoons quicker than any other utensils? In my household
Long spoon. I love long spoon.
I can hear this image
That spoon in too big.
We call them Korean fighting spoons. Since it's for reaching side dishes and sauces before others at the table
Found the backpacker.
I bought a few sundae spoons at a thrift store on a lark and holy crap are they useful!
Little spoons go first for me,. But yes, spoons are the ultimate utensil
Spork enters the chat.
Get outta here Popeyes. Your tines are too short to grab the meat, and your ends are too pointy to gather the last 5%. I'd end up full of styrofoam, pawing at a bone like a kitten if I used you. My fingers and teeth work 100x better than you.
Even if I'm backpacking and I need to save weight, I'd rather have a cat-dog version of spoon and fork.
I keep sporks in my car so if i'm starving after a shopping trip I can break into some grub.
Splayd
I have a lot of condiments to scoop
Whatever falls into the sarlacc pit that is my garbage disposal goes first
Depends on what I made that week. If it's a soup or stew, spoons are the first to go.
Little spoons - by a large margin
Forks
Big spoons
Kitchen knives
Butter knives
/I don't use chopsticks
i use what's most convenient to grab... for instance i use a spoon, or even a fork, for making a pb&j far more often than a knife. there's a better chance of those being out on the drying rack than a knife. if that means i'm eating ice cream with a fork, i'm eating ice cream with a fork - as long as it's frozen enough.
