Morsel Spork

I’ve had a Morsel spork for about five years now. I own two – the original and a back-up I bought that’s still pristine. One big change is that the majority of the body of the sporks they sell is aluminum instead of the polycarbonate mine are made from.

My Morsel spork weighs just about an ounce. I can’t find a weight for the new aluminum ones, but they’re very likely to be lighter weight.

I love this spork. The spoon end has silicone edges like a spatula; these really help scrape all the food residue on the inside of whatever you’re eating a meal out of. If you’re eating out a container you re-use, being able to scrape all the sauce & food bits out means easier clean-up using less water. I rarely use the spork end, but it works well – the tines are long enough that this actually functions like a fork. The new ones mention a “strong knife edge for cutting” but I can’t see what part of the spork they’re referring to. Mine has serrations on one end, and the ‘knife’ portion works on softer things like avocados, zucchini, softer cheeses (it might work on cheddar; I doubt it’ll work on parmesan). I’ve only used it few times and then I was just testing it — I carry a separate knife & I don’t need this feature in my spork.

The only negative thing I can say about my Morsel spork is that the rubbery spatula material has worn away in some spots. It’s still functional, and I’ll probably keep using it until the spatula edge wears away completely.
