Sporks

Sometimes, combining things work out well. Reese's cups (Peanut Butter & Milk Chocolate) worked out well. Then there are other combos that never seemed to pan out well...like sporks.

Sporks

There are many inventions that are completely useless. However probably one of the worst of the bunch has to be the spork.

While feeding my dog, I noticed the contents from can dog food was a mushy solid and fork would have not done justice to scooping out half a can, so I grabbed a spoon or at least I thought it was spoon. I realized I picked up a spork. I rose it up to my eye level and thought, “This has to be the stupidest invention ever.”

Someone in the grand stupidity of things thought, “I know people have a hard time switching from a fork to a spoon. Let's combine a spoon and fork, and that can save people 1.2 seconds between switching between the two.” This inventor has to be a C student.

Fork+Spoon=Spork=profit

And, when you think about it, a spork is jack of all trades and a master of none. Sporks are the Red Mages of kitchen utensils. I mean you can't hold down meat really well while you cut it, and it doesn't handle soup too well. What about ice cream or fried rice?

I guess it is for people that don't want to pay for spoons and forks.

To my total surprise, there is a website devoted the spork, check it out.
