  • Patent number: 4334355
    Abstract: A fork 10 for winding spaghetti 30 which is spun by displacing the user's hand along grooves of a track 14 on handle 12 from point 16 to point 18 is disclosed. The speed of rotation increases as the user's hand approaches support plate 20 because the pitch of the grooves in track 14 increases. In one embodiment the center prong 22 is longer than prongs 24, and edges 32 of prongs 24 are straight and parallel to axis 26. The added length of center prong 22 facilitates rotational movement around axis 26. Straight edges 32 facilitate both the winding of spaghetti 30 around fork 10 and removal of the wound spaghetti for consumption.
