The Spork – A practical travel gadget that will give you an all-in-one spoon, fork and knife! Perfect for camping and traveling.
Whenever you travel or go camping it might not be convenient to bring several pieces of cutlery. For example, if you’re 4 people who all need 1 spoon, 1 knife and 1 fork each, you’ll suddenly need to bring 12 different items. However, if you instead buy the spork, you will just need 4 items, which will save you space and make things smoother.
I never travel without my spark, and it has surely made a lot of my trips easier and more enjoyable.
What is a Spork?
In short, you could say that it’s a multi-cutlery that gives you the option of using a knife, fork, and spoon all in one single product.
When do you need a Spork?
A spork will work just as good when you go into the woods or having a picnic in the park. It will also work just as good whenever you want to buy something cheap and readymade from the supermarket, but you don’t have any cutlery in reach. Thanks to the small size of the Spork you can always carry it with you.
With a price of just 2 Euro, I will say that this is a must-have item for any traveler who likes to travel on a budget or go camping. You never know when this comes handy, and I recommend you to always carry 1 or 2 sporks in your bag!
Personally, I love to be spontaneous and sometimes that will mean that I want to buy something delicious from the supermarket or do a takeaway from a restaurant. Most supermarkets don’t offer cutlery, and the plastic one-time usage cutlery is not any good, and they are bad for the environment as well.
I can’t even name how many times my plastic forks got cracked while eating. It’s not nice, and you won’t have that issue with a spork since it’s sturdy and durable. I’m sure you can relate to this if you have been eating lots of takeaways or bought plastic cutlery for picnics and day trips.
Another plus with the spork is the fact that you can put it in the dishwasher and reuse it countless of times. And if you do have a couple of them, you can share with your friends as well on excursions!
A fun but practical travel gadget
If you’re looking for tips on good Christmas gifts or general gifts for travelers, then the Spork is a nice thing to give since it’s both cheap and practical. Most people have a use for it, and if they haven’t heard about it, I’m sure it will be an appreciated gift.
