A cool guide to different types of forks

Everyone was having a fish party so I grabbed my fish fork but once I arrived I realized I had grabbed my pastry fork instead. Everyone laughed at me. "Want a fish pie?" they kept asking. "Want a fish pie?"

God, I'm so embarrassed. I wish I had seen this chart sooner.

You really made me feel like I was there, laughing at you like the rest
Forks at the ready
Damn, I want a fish pie now
But what happens when you are served a seafood dessert made with fruit and fish?
The Masterson's will have a bit of a tizzy when it comes to hosting next months neighborhood afternoon soiree. I'm sure the Jefferson's will have a chuckle at the end of the meal.
Fish Pie! (dougie's rant on 'derek' @1:20)

Fine dining is so weird.

fine dining can go fork off
When appearances and etiquette become more important than the food ..... I'd rather have a box of KD and watch some Netflix in my underwear.
- With what kind of fork tho
- Could be worse… could be like the old Japanese fine dining, where you’re just supposed to stare at the food and pretend to eat it.

Shrimp is bugs.

There's an actual fork for spaghetti!?!

Why have I never seen one before? WTF is this conspiracy?

I've been to many italian establishments and have never seen them. probably just a gimmick nobody knows about
It would be so uncomfortable to use 😬
- it looks like it needs to go to a fork hospital
  just use a fork and a spoon for spaghetti like a normal person
I call BS. Every other fork (even the crab "pick") I can believe it have seen. I do not believe in this.
I have never seen this. italians spin their fork in the spoon to wrap the noodles, seems to work fine. That spaghetti fork would have terrible mouth feel.
- I've never seen an italian eat spaghetti with a spoon, but maybe it varies by region.

The list is disappointingly missing many variants, such as:

The Spork (an invention commonly attributed to Samuel W. Francis, but which remains in doubt)
The Knork, from the popular show Knork and Knindy (knanu-knanu)
Neptune's trident (four out of five dentists recommend it)
Cluster fork (as experienced by yours truly at least once per fortnight when production goes down)
The most ancient and purest form of all: the monofork, aka kebap skewer

The knork was invented by Abraham Lincoln and Gandhi.

Why would you eat a table?

Of all the fork shapes, the table fork seems the least useful for its named purpose.
- All forks are table forks if you put them on the forking table.
- With an honorable mention for the cocktail fork. If you don't want to drink it, at least use a spoon

Hows a crab meant to hold that?

With both claws.
- Nice
- Yeah if it's a little one maybe, but if a crab can one-claw a knife then it can one-claw a fork. He's not a little crablet anymore, Charlene.

Most of those are threeks and twoks. Only a few forks.

This joke goes hard

Where are garden fork and tuning fork?

Better get out your pitchfork

I need that spaghetti fork.

Table fork and salad fork are the same. Change my mind.

Well yeah, where else would you eat salad? The floor? Everyone knows that's where burgers are served.
Salad fork is usually slightly smaller, but that's about it.

Italians

make weird noodles
need strange tools to eat them

South east asians

use literal sticks that chop
make overcomplicated food that just needs to be grabbed
breed special rice that sticks

Germans

Spoon go brrr

I love sticky rice tho. Just saying.
Those Asians, they had some ideas, let me tell you.

And remember if you see a fork in the road, take it.

I love that all of the responses in here are just forking jokes.

What if I'm having fish salad for dessert?

That is such an underrated movie.
- Whenever I'm trying to get people to do something and they are ambivalent I always use the line "I thought I was teamed up with superheroes but I'm stuck here with Lazy Boy and the Recliner!" No one gets it.

Seriously what’s the point.

How is a salad fork any better than a commoner fork for a salad.

The same for most of these.

Are the extra-thick tines on the fish and pie forks for cutting?

This is truly a cool guide.
