Optimus vs Vargo titanium spork

[avalonmorn]

I'm finishing up my gear purchases for my thru. I noticed "Mouse" (this years thruhiker) in her pics had her spork hung around her neck, good idea. Which spork should I buy?

i got rid of all my titatium eating utenciles because in the winter they got too cold and froze to my gloves or too hot and burnt my lips.

Instead of a spork, I got the Sea-to-Summit aluminum long handled spoon. You don't get your fingers in your food that way, it's almost as light as titanium, and like Karl says, no heat/cold transfer issues. Sporks are a compromise that don't do either thing - fork and spoon - well.
