#459 forks


When you think about it forks are the greatest invention ever. Without forks we would still be eating all of our food with our hands. That’s pretty gross when you think about it. If you were eating everything with your hands you would also be eating everything that’s on your hands. Everything that your hands had touched you’d be putting in your mouth. Forks are probably the reason that’s there are less sick people in the world, it could be all that fancy medical technology but I think its far more likely that its because we are using forks to eat most things instead of our hands. Forks are the human races greatest invention because without the fork we might not have invented foods like spaghetti, just think about how hard it would be the eat spaghetti without a fork. Forks have made dinning a more sophisticated affair instead if just grabbing and tearing at food we can simply pick up small pieces and eat that. The fork probably also gave the knife a place on every dinner table everywhere just imagine you have this nice fork the pick your food up with but you have to hold the food up to your face and takes bites off of it. The first person to realize that forks and knives belonged together was probably a national hero in his country. The fork can be used for many other things rather than eating, it has been turned into a tool to shovel hay with also known as a pitchfork. The fork is also a weapon that gods such as Neptune were depicted using this weapon is of course a triton. Forks can also be used as a comb if you’re really desperate. As you can see the fork is more than just a dinning utensil.
