Abstract: A spoon comprises a handle and a bowl. The bowl has a superior face and an inferior face. The bowl includes a front tip-end portion, a rear handle-end portion and a central axis. The bowl includes a first outer edge and a second outer edge, each having a respective length. The bowl includes a first curved side and a second curved side each upturned toward the superior face of the bowl thereby forming a concave arcuate enclosure for an elongated receptacle formed substantially along a portion of the central axis and tapering toward the front tip-end portion. The first curved side and the second curved side terminate at a predefined distance respectively along the first outer edge and the second outer edge from an apex of the rear handle-end portion thereby causing the rear handle-end portion to be flat relative to the first curved side and the second curved side.
