Spring Spoon

 made out of spring steel

Can you take a bite of some cornflakes and milk launched into the air? The spoon’s business end is a metal diaphragm with two attitudes, convex and concave.

Can you shoot a pea into your nostril? The spring spoon will only stay in the concave, spoon position a few seconds before popping back.

Can you transfer the teaspoon of salt to the mix before it sprays out over the counter? Push the spoon concave and dip into some food.

Can you eat some custard before it’s plastered onto your face? Hours of fun for the young and silly.

       Could be useful as an icecream scoop design. Icecream sticks to icecream scoops, unless you use the one with the little lever which releases the icecream blob.

       This is a terrible idea. The food would end up all over yourself and the room. [+]

       Springs are good.

       Whatever happened to just using a stringbean as a fulcrum and manually pounding on the handle of the spoon? You are getting lazy [FarmerJohn]
