Wooden spoon and fork

There was one province where I experienced using the wooden spoon and fork. It was kind of awkward at first but later on I got the drift and I enjoyed eating with the wooden cutlery. It was just a novelty but I guess it can be worth using instead of the plastic fork and spoon that we used when we go on a picnic.

Old folks here say that the wooden spoon is the best for using in the soup cauldron. The steaming soup will not scald you and the heat would not travel in wood. The big wooden spoon is also used by home bakers in mixing their dough. Nevertheless, the wooden spoon and fork will go out of style because of the popularity of the cheap plastic version.
