The ramen spoon sounds like a spork to me. (I have a cordial dislike of
sporks.)

Why don't you have some chopsticks handy? They are the ideal
noodle implement as the Thais who use spoon and fork for
everything else attest.

I can't speak for Sandi, but I do have chopsticks. Not that I eat ramen
(allergic).

Is a spork a bit like spam? The device in the photo looks more like a
Swedish designer subcontracting for a new torture device.

I always use chopsticks for my noodles like any civilized person would.

No.

Yes, it does.

The "knork" (stupid word) reminds me of little more than a fancy cake
fork.

> I always use chopsticks for my noodles like any civilized person would.


Indeed.

Yes indeed! Chopsticks in right hand (cos I'm right-handed...) and
Chinese soup spoon in left hand. No need to put utensils down or switch
from hand to hand.

Has the CIA been forcing you to eat noodle soup, perhaps? :-)
