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
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.
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 still think it's weird using a spoon for spaghetti.
I've seen it done. I get why people do it. I still think it's weird.
Whatever. Be weird. So your thing. As long as it gets the food from the plate to your face, who am I to say it's wrong?
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.
Seems like a common thing in North America. I've seen plenty of people use a spoon to hold the tip of their fork to spin it and ball up spaghetti (and similar noodle pasta).
I'm not even Italian, I think it's weird. Far be it for me to tell anyone how to eat though. So I just shut my mouth and eat my spaghetti, my way.
Could be, an old Italian guy showed me the spoon as the base and fork as the spinning tool. But yeah maybe it is regional...or like giving white people a fork at an asian place
It's a very Italian American thing. It's not really something you'd see in Italy.
The list is disappointingly missing many variants, such as:
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
Most of those are threeks and twoks. Only a few forks.
This joke goes hard
Hows a crab meant to hold that?
With both claws.
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.
Nice
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
South east asians
Germans
I love sticky rice tho. Just saying.
Those Asians, they had some ideas, let me tell you.
I love that all of the responses in here are just forking jokes.

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