I was always under the impression that the Spork was invented by Colonel Sanders of KFC fame.

Is there a better meal to show off the strengths of the spork than some extra crispy chicken, with sides of mashed potatos, gravy and cole slaw?

The problem with the modern spork is that it has evolved too far. By shortening the fork part to make room for a long knife edge they overlook principle rule of meat cutting - it should be done with to hands.

I prefer the 1900 version along with a knife - the tines look more usable.

You're thinking of a pewfter's froth. Spork is more like a queef without so much splooge on it.

The Knork is also beneficial to persons having motor skill disabilities, use of only a single hand Instant turn-off.

I'm surprised these haven't been banned because of their relatively sharp points.

Maybe the trial lawyers haven't thought of that yet. A spork is a lawsuit waiting to happen.

We already know how dangerous hot coffee in styrofoam cups can be (McDonald's paid dearly for that lesson). We must be protected from these lethal weapons.

Senator Specter needs to hold immediate hearings. Senator McCain needs to introduce an anti-spork bill.

i don't buy the "evolution of the spork" garbage... usually a thing evolves from "big and clumsy" to "sleek and useful", not the other way around ... a spork, as it is presented, would never have survived meals for thousands of years because of its unwieldy nature (ie-it tries to do too much- something to puncture and grab meat as well as being curvaceous for the delicate job of sipping soup) ... it makes more sense that the spork split off somewhere along the line and became the modern day spoon AND the modern day fork...I contend that Col Harlen Sanders was nothing more than a 20th century Luddite .....please quit relying on junk science for your "facts"
