Science of a Spoon


How many of you have every really looked at a spoon? I mean, REALLY looked at a spoon? That's where we are...looking at spoons. Who knew that there could be so many options in so many colors? Let's take for instance the bowl of the spoon. Do you want it wide? Do you want it thin? Do you want it deep? How long? Or, look at the handle. Long or short? Thin or thick? Textured or smooth? You could go crazy with the possibilities! Hey, what about the spork? Nah. Ok...so maybe we should start with what color. Clear? White? Fuchsia? Lime Green? Orange? Chocolate Brown?

So all this looking at spoons has me wondering. Has anyone ever been in an ice cream shop, a frozen yogurt shop or any other restaurant and said, "Hey! I really like the design and color of that spoon! I wonder if we could get some of those."? Somehow I just doubt it. Still, it is intriguing that so many companies could be in the business of making and selling spoons. It attests to our love of them.

So back to business. What shape, size, color, thickness should we chose? I guess we will just have to sacrifice and try the bazillion spoons with our yogurt and toppings to see what just looks the best and performs as a spoon should. We'll keep you posted on our progress.
