I knew a guy like that. We went to a restaurant together and he ordered a salad, and started eating it with a spoon.

Normally, when a person does something unusual, I don’t say anything, but I was surprised. It had never even occurred to me that a salad with broad leaves could be eaten with a spoon.

So slightly taken aback, I said to him, “Why aren’t you eating a salad with a fork?” And he replied, “I am accustomed to eating with a spoon.”
