eating utensils
Eating utensils are tools used to assist in consuming food. Common utensils include forks, with prongs for spearing and holding food; knives, designed to cut and sometimes spread; and spoons, for scooping liquids or soft foods. They are typically made from metal, plastic, or wood, and are selected based on the type of food and cultural practices. Utensils help improve efficiency, hygiene, and enjoyment during meals, and their design can vary across different cuisines and traditions. Proper use and handling of utensils contribute to an organized and respectful dining experience.
