Abstract

A convenient and functional spoon-like utensil, easily transformed from the integrated composite of a thin piece of plastic adhered to a typical foil-type lid material used currently in the food industry. When the composite is rolled or folded, it forms a strong, ridged utensil with which to consume the food contents while “on-the-go.”
