sporks
Tined scoop tools
A spork is a utensil combining features of a spoon and a fork—typically a shallow spoon bowl with short tines at the tip.
Common in fast food restaurants, school cafeterias, and camping gear, sporks offer convenience over versatility: The KFC spork couldn't quite handle the coleslaw or the chicken.
The word blends spoon and fork.
