If there is such a thing as an American spoon, can we get a picture?

No doubt spoons that have been improved on. ;-)

Sadly, Ikea imports chinese flatware. Their "dessert spoon" is a nice middle between tea and table spoons.

Spoons are okay - if you enjoy shoveling food into your gaping maul. The only question is if you prefer eating with a shovel or a pitchfork.

You sound as narrow-minded as Gary, except with the exact opposite
outcome.

There are a few methods that will avoid that grease crud buildup.

1. An automatic dishwasher using a good detergent made for the machine.

2. Hot, soapy dishwater in either your kitchen sink or a dishpan. Apply
vigorous scrubbing motion with either a clean dishcloth or clean dish
sponge. A clean dish brush is another option.

3. Invest in plastic eating utensils, being sure to recycle.

Haven't used the washer that came with the house. My dish load is too small, just hand wash in the sink.

Too much work for lasagna cheese bits stuck to the inside of the fork tong.
Spoons are prefect for lasagna.

Plastic is wasteful and costly. Sometimes I save unused carryout plastic forks for later use on poke-worthy eats.

Our dish load is small so I run the machine every second or third day.
I use Cascade Platinum and those cheese bits are cleaned from the fork.
Everything sparkles.

We use whatever utensils, whatever dishes for eating and serving since I
don't have to stand at the sink to clean them. Don't compromise your
meals, usr the machine and you may get to really like it. Saves water
too.

I keep a surgeon's scrub brush at each sink, for hand washing and
perfect for cleaning between fork tines and other groovy places.

Forks have *tines*, NOT "tong"s

Are you a two year old? Does your mommy cut your lasagna into tiny
bits for you?

Better quality plastic eating utensils will survive many washings, and
are prefect for picnics, backyard cookouts, and bringing lunch to
work. We use paper plates too, perfect for fried foods, even eggs as
they suck up lots of grease calories... and then they are reused for
feeding cats.

Sorry but imo, plastic utensils and paper plates are for picnics
and tightwads.

*Flings a piece of delicata squash at you* It's freshly roasted in olive oil
with salt and pepper. Also some brown rice with butter and a salad with all
kinds of veggies, Swiss cheese, walnuts, olives and grapes. Ham steak for
those who want it. We're eating with non-greasy stainless.

What in the hell do you eat that greases and cruds up your forks? And are
plastic utensils recyclable there? They're not here.

Yes, I have the last of a small pack of Oneida teaspoons, and I love it!

But any spoon will do when I need a spoon!

Sound like you need sporks. The spaces between the tines aren't
tight and are easy to clean. that is, since; you're not smart
enought o be able to wash them out completely. For stuck on stuff I
just soak for 10 minutes to 10 hours, then clean with a 3M double
sided sponge. Never had a problem. That's what IQ's are for.

I use a dish brush. I have an assortment of brushes in a container by my
sink. Places like H Mart have some cool ones in various lengths/sizes.

I've heard of greasy spoons but never greasy forks. I do prefer spoons over
forks but it depends on what I'm eating. Green salad is hard to eat with a
spoon.

I like whatever utensil is right for the job. I have, and use daily, an
Oneida (Rogers & Rogers) Homestead pattern stainless set. I have used it
for 45 years and not experienced crud build up on forks or any other utensil
type. Rather than disparage forks, it might be a good idea to reconsider
the food you eat or the cleaning method/frequency you use.

My diet is pretty much set, the last addition is banana peppers for sandwich toppings.
Frozen lasagna has gooey cheese that will stick to the edges of a fork tong, oops... tine. I will slice up the lasagna MYSELF with a sharp knife that produces spoon sized bites. Well-la, only minor gooeing along the spoon edges that's easily washed or just scraped off with my teeth.

I doubt that best imported Professional grade dish washer can remove the cheese crud remaining on the curve and edges of fork TINES...okay ?
I LIKE SPOONS !

I don't know about imported machines, but my KitchenAid using Cascade
Platinum will get it perfectly clean. I've done it many times. It gets
worse off.
