When you're eating something like curry, or chilli, do you prefer to eat it with a spoon or a fork?
I'm a spoon guy through and through but I've a feeling I may be outnumbered here. |

"Spork

.
Sporks have actually been around for years, you can get different types. Great for the very elderly and dementia. And Wonko obviously! (I've used one myself in the past I admit). pt |

I genuinely thought I’d stumbled upon the American Forum page for a minute
The correct answer is Knife and Fork people unless it’s popadoms, naan bread, burrito or Taco’s in which case feel free to use your hands.  |

There is no spoon...
I prefer "mopping up" with a naan, roti, tortilla or whatever. If the dish is served with rice (like both examples) I eat the meat/veg in the sauce part first then stir the rice through the remaining sauce which soaks a lot of it up anyway. |

Rice is just easier with a spoon! Mrs villain hates that I use a spoon but it’s easier. If you’re using a fork simply because you think it’s “proper” and you look down on people for using a spoon, then that’s a bit sad

I don’t look down on anyone. I’ve just never even thought of eating my dinner with a spoon. Unless it’s soup. The thread has surprised me that’s all. Perhaps I should try |

Absolutely wasn’t aimed at you or anyone I’ve had people say it’s “not correct” or not the “proper” way to eat before so I was just throwing that out there.

Who said I can’t use one? It’s just easier to eat rice with a spoon, that’s literally all it comes down to..

Spoon, you can't eat rice with a fork. |

Well Indians have mastered not using either when eating curries, they use Naans to scoop it up...so we're all wrong. |

I can and do use a fork for almost everything.
I don't mind what others use as I'm aware there are many dishes originally made to be eaten using hands or other items and we now use forks and spoons for.
It's just easier/neater for me to use a fork so I do. |

Either curry or chilli, anything like that, Chinese, stir fry, Jacket potato, stew, always a spoon and a fork.
I eat my peas with honey, done it all my life, it makes them taste kinda funny, but it keeps them on the knife. |
