This isn't the first time the whole world moved towards "greener" design but hopefully this time it'll stick. Plastic spoons that come with takeout foods are inefficient and "ungreen" so the challenge was to find the most cost effective remedy while giving Earth one less thing to worry about. Ideally you should carry your own flatware but if you don't mind a little kitsch, check out the Spoon and Box.
The handle is a perfect spot to hide a precut spoon. Just turn it inside out (the clean side) and you're ready to eat. It can even turn into a spork for those sporky occasions. Works fine for dry foods but I wouldn't go dipping into some greasy chili fries or Chinese food with it. So did we really solve any problems here?
