      Ugh yes, I don’t even know how I got this spoon. It’s wide and flat, and has these sheer edges like it was just stamped from a sheet of metal and then fucked into a vaguely spoon adjacent shape by aliens who had heard of the concept of spoon and hated people. Somehow the metal is always kind of grimy looking, even when freshly cleaned.

      This spoon will outlive me. It will outlive all of us.

      For me it’s having forks with slightly bent prongs, I absolutely hate that but I also don’t really want to start throwing cutlery away because it’s metal and I don’t really know what to do with it. Is it recyclable?

        It is recyclable, since it’s metal. If you have any recycling infrastructure around where you live, there’s probably some place or company or similar, that will take all sorts of stuff, as recycling it can be profitable. Have you already tried searching “metal recycling (your area)” or something like that?

      For some reason my partner prefers the worlds worst spoons, so we have our own sets and its so annoying to have to dig through 10 of the worlds most awful spoon to get to my good ones.

          Not really enough space for more dividers than are already in there to separate types of flatware. Very small apartment galley Kitchen.

                easier to tell apart forks and knives than different spoons!

                or maybe just agree to have one set of spoons facing in and one out in the same pocket, actually that’s better.
