Metal Spoon

A spoon is a utensil consisting of a small shallow bowl (also known as a head), oval or round, at the end of a handle. A type of cutlery (sometimes called flatware in the United States), especially as part of a place setting, it is used primarily for transferring food to the mouth. Spoons are also used in food preparation to measure, mix, stir and toss ingredients and for serving food. Present-day spoons are made from metal (notably flat silver or silverware, plated or solid), wood, porcelain, or plastic. There is a wide variety of spoons that are made of a variety of materials and by different cultures for many different uses and foods.
