Do you prefer to eat stew with a fork or a spoon?

[Anonymous]

I just finished a bowl of my wife's amazing stew, which I ate with a spoon because the pieces are small enough that they'll fit on a spoon and don't need to be cut, and with enough liquid that a spoon is required.

I know many stews are made with big pieces that are eaten with a knife and fork.

I prefer the former. Which do you prefer?

I know it's a frivolous question...please humor me. :)

I like to use a fork, because for a weird reason it feels like I'm eating a soup when I use a spoon. Spoon also feels kind of big if you're used to using a fork with foods like that and I like to use a knife.

A very nice question by the way. Really made me think about myself.

chopsticks are multifunctional no?

I think you made some valid points about

the fork and spoon, perhabs a fork would be

better suited for this, but a spoon is easier ^.~

Thank you sir. :) ^

A soup spoon every time even if it has big pieces in it.

Not such a big fan of watery stew prefer them thick and with lots of big golf ball sized cuts of meat in them else it just isn't a stew.

I'd use chopsticks of possible

but if for some reason it isn't, I'd

probably use a spoon ^.~

Haha!

I like using chopsticks for a lot of things. I don't know how well they'd work with stew though.

I am a huge fan of Japanese food.

a stew is just another word for "soup" with big pieces to me, or something that has sat in its own juices for a long time

sooo... spoon

I eat my stew, the same as you.

You are a wise man, and a smartarse. :)

[palek]

And you're a smart man, and a wisearse.

[Asker]

Gad dammit you kill me, palek. I think you and I would get along.

Uh, I don't mean that in a homosexual way...

[palek]

I'm certain we would. Sans gayness of course.

I tend to eat stew with a spoon.
