Cutlery revisited

Exciting news from the world of cutlery. Regular readers (I like to think there are some) may recall my disappointment at the paucity of recent developments in the field of eating utensilery. So "bravo!" then to Connie Cheng and Leonardo Bonanni with the invention of the "Intelligent Spoon". No longer will humankind need to risk placing a foodstuff in our mouths which is too hot, too cold, too salty, etcetera. This spoon has sensors to detect when all is not as it should be.

And thanks to Apul for letting me know about the invention of the Foon (by Malvolio Rutteledge)

Small steps perhaps, but definately definitely progress.
