A brief domestic note
Judging from the clean utensils I just unloaded from the dishwasher, the people who live in my house -- all of whom have a full complement of functioning teeth -- basically only eat with spoons.
No wonder we go through so many Jell-O Pudding Snacks.

Yeah, me too. Anything I would need a fork or knife for I just use my fingers or teeth.

You have children and you still have spoons? Count your blessings. I keep having to go out in the yard and look for silverware.

Forks are for "fine dining" where you admire the food, spoons are for actually eating stuff ;->

I noticed the same thing. When I asked Sweet Sarah why she used spoons instead of forks, she said...
Cause stuff doesn't fall off of spoons.
Well, she is only six, so I guess I will have to go back over, how to "stab" those vittles.

The spoon is the most mathematically elegant of utensils, having a smooth and well-defined shape.
The use of the knife reflects sloppiness on the part of the food preparer -- food should arrive pre-sliced in bite-sized portions, and the fork possesses an arbitrarily chosen number of prongs.
All hail the spoon!
