The Invention of the Fooon

The spork is a funny eating utensil and doesn’t serve as both spoon and fork with full functionality and emulation of an individual spoon or fork. Example, you can’t use a spork for soup. And you can’t pierce hard meat with a spork since the spiky fork-like projections are in limited reach and with rounded edge.

Imagine a mass production of Fooon: a full substitute to any existing eating utensil, and yes, even if the chopstick is as fascinating and simple. The Fooon is a hybrid of a spoon and fork with the great dissimilarity from a spork, varying in capability and universality. Unlike the spork, the Fooon looks like a spoon with protruding fork teeth, making the Fooon a better choice since it gives the service of fusing the spoon and fork for portability without taking away a good characteristic of either parent utensil.
