    Abstract: A kitchen utensil selectively usable as tongs or a spatula. The utensil has first and second arms each with first and second ends. The first ends are pivotally secured together and the arms are moveable between a position where they are adjacent each other and a position where they are at an angle relative to each other. The second arm telescopes and is movable between a retracted position and an extended position. When retracted, the second ends are substantially adjacent and opposite each other. When extended, the second end of the second arm is positioned a distance outwardly beyond the second end of the first arm. The second end of the first arm is a shaped tong member and the second end of the second arm is a spatula member. The tong and spatula members are each positioned at an angle relative to the rest of the respective arm.
