Abstract
An eating utensil, having a first portion having a first proximal end and a first distal end, the first distal end having more than one prong, and the first proximal end having a first engagement portion; and a second portion having a second proximal end and a second distal end, the second distal end having more than one prong, and the second proximal end having a second engagement portion, the first and the second engagement portions being complementarily shaped to releasably receive and engage one another. The inventive eating utensil can be operable in three different operational modes. In a first operational mode, each of the first portion and the second portion is operable as a fork-like utensil. In a second operational mode, the first portion and the second portion together are operable as a server-like utensil. In a third operation mode, when the first and the second engagement portions are engaged, the eating utensil is operable as a tong-like utensil.
