Did you know that the word “Spork” first appeared in the Century Dictionary way back in 1909? Or that there were patents for spork like utensils going back to 1874? It’s all true. Sporks man, they’re crazy. What isn’t crazy, yet spork related, is the website/blog/podcast The Sporkful, which delves into the finest, and most ridiculous, minutiae of foods. “Delving into the finest, and most ridiculous, minutiae of foods? Isn’t there a website that does that already, but is only nacho related?” Yes, yes there is, and you’re on it right now, because it’s us, but the very fact that we love the notion of food minutiae makes us also love The Sporkful. Anyone who can overthink the biological act of consumption in a hilarious and informative fashion is alright in our books.
