    I was there when they were invented, they were called mini-bowls. The marketing team didn't like it, though, so we had to rewrite all the clay tablets with 'spoons'. Which is a dumb name, for the record.

      That’s what they told you, huh? I’ll tell you the real reason. One time the marketing director was trying to steal some ornamental golden cutlery from the office, but he was caught red handed. “Hey! Where are you going with these mini bowls of yours” someone yelled and it instantly became a meme. That is, until he forced his departament to change the name to spoon and the joke stopped making sense.

      Some say this is just a coverup story for the murder of the ladle inventor whose family in Kilkenny still claim rightful ownership of that patent, but today arguing with Big Spoon is just asking for it
