Excuse me, it goes: Fork->Knife->Spoon->tea spoon.

I don't know what this is but it's certainly not in keeping with the lord's way.

I think you've swapped knife and fork…

Right chopstick -> left chopstick -> porcelain soup spoon -> packets of unused plastic foldable forks that came with the instant noodles

Do chopsticks have an orientation?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago

Yes, but their orientation is none of your business.

God, I love Asian soup apoons!

Me too, the shape is just so perfect for so many things. I bought some recently at the Vietnamese market nearby. They have fancy little roses surrounded by a filigree pattern printed on them and say "English" on the handle in some Victorian-looking cursive font lmao. I love them.

Finnish mnemonic: Haaveilu. Haarukka=fork, veitsi=knife, lusikka=spoon.

Haaveilu=daydreaming, reverie

Personally, I prefer dessert spoon, fork, knife, then tea spoon.

What the actual fuck!? The knives always go on the outside, far left or far right.
