I get it, I don’t do it with a spoon, but I understand the problem it’s trying to solve.
Most forks are curved, so you naturally pick up the pasta so it lands in the concave side, but when you flip it over to start spinning, the pasta slides off the end or down to the handle. So it becomes a shitty game to try to keep the spaghetti on the fork while you twirl it to fit the whole thing in your mouth.
There’s a few solutions to this, like spinning the fork against the plate or using a spoon, or a fancy spaghetti fork (like in the OP). I’m sure there’s more, that’s just what I can think of.
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 don’t know why people can’t just spin their forks and have the spaghetti wrap around? Never seemed like something difficult or requiring extra tools
