I feel seen!
I hate all forks big enough not to pass for a salad fork
Its not just a fork.
I also have a spoon, a butter knife, and a steak knife, that I all hate for no reason, that I actively put back if I accidentally grab them to get something else.
I hate them so much that I will just skip eating if thats all in the drawer and I dont feel like doing dishes.
Maybe its time to let go
Suicide is a bit of an overreaction
THE CUTLERY!
My mom’s house was like this. When we inherited my grandma’s nicely molded and weighted set she just put them all in the drawer together with the cheap but decent set we already had. She then went and added a cheap amazon stamped sheet metal set, which was painted black so it didn’t even match a little bit, on top of it all.
Drove me nuts until I could finally move out and buy a single cohesive set for my drawer.
Butter knives, I hate them all.
Just put it in the butter dish? Are people just not using butter dishes these days?
I’m in my mid 40s and many of my cutlery had names. I’m not kidding. There’s Mack, the knife. Then there’s “gitty”, a fork from git. There’s “Hulk”, my favorite mother-of-Pearl egg spoon (from “spoony god”, got it?!?), another fork named “cleetus”, another knife called “Aragorn”, a huge serving spoon called “Schaffer” (a German thing, from “schaffen”, getting it done), an old knife called Emily (cause it’s blunt), a fork called “Becki” from Bakelite, it’s end of made from it (no dishwasher for Becki, ever), a 2 prong fork called “Chris”, from Christopher Pike, the star Trek captain, “butters” the butter knife, “Ichi”, the Japanese crazy Sharp straight knife, regularly sharpened on “Neil” and “Kappa”, the diamond and the water stone and the list goes on and on. Don’t ask about the other stuff, like “Wicket”, the electric wok. E-wok. Right. That one. I guess, it became kind of a hobby.
The way OP highlighted the best fork of them all is absolutely wild and I’m never going to recover
Looks like the worst to me as well.
People who think that is the best fork need to be investigated.
Beautifully spaced prongs, sleek long handle, no random ridges or engraving to have dirt get caught in. Chef kiss, no notes.
Square handle bases are the worst!
Different forks for different folks
Chopsticks are superior anyways
It’s much harder to cut a steak with chopsticks.
You cross the chopsticks like an X and use it like scissors.
But either way I wouldn’t use just a fork, I’d use a knife too.
Well yeah, the fork is to hold down the steak while you cut it with the knife.
You can hold down the steak with the chopsticks and use a knife as well?
For sushi and literally nothing else
Eating chips/popcorn without getting dust on your fingers. For stabbing if it’s something thick or you can cross them like an X to use them as makeshift scissors. They’re just lightweight tongs and their precision allows for a range from a single grain of rice to an entire steak. It’s just a matter of mastery.
As a bonus they’re wooden so they don’t ruin my cookware when I scrape. You see wooden spoons but rarely wooden forks.
For most Asian food, noodle dishes in particular.
Yup
yeah, if I get that fork by accident I go and get another 😆
Fork it!
all my forks are like that, I hate the smaller ones
Really?? Wanna trade because I can’t stand the big forks. Like why are they so large? I don’t want to consume my entire meal in a single bite.
I only like the smaller ones and hate the bigger ones
I don’t know why this is posted as a shitpost. This is just life wisdom. There is a single fork in my drawer that I refuse to use, it’s basically like a salad fork, but it’s not quiet big enough to be one, but it’s too large to be used as a normal fork. I. Hate. That. Fork.
Me too but now I found a good use for it. I have a Kitchen utensils holder and I just put the bad fork there. It’s great for tasting., helping ot just holding something while cutting
We can’t shitpost about life now?
I’m just joshin my dude. :)
I know! So am I!

How you know he name
I could just feel it. OP types like a Josh.
Besides the “kiddy forks”, there’s one. There’s also one spoon that I always use. If it’s dirty, I’ll clean it first
I have a drawer filled with two sets of silverware: a heavy,solid walmart set,and a cheap,thin dollar store set. The dollar store set you look at them funny and they’re bent. The walmart set,tho,I believe you could commit homicide with one and it would still be fine. Nice and heavy,good feel in the hands. The dollar store set feels like a child’s play set. I despise them but my wife won’t let me throw them out. If I have to use the flimsy ones I too will skip a meal,or wash one of the good utensils.
We have some forks which are made out of really thin tin you can bend them very easily. I hate those forks. No one uses them. I wish they would take the hint and fork off, instead they hang around trying to blend in with the better cutlery and get picked by accident.
Forkget about it
