In this episode of Fake People, Real Trivia, explore the fascinating history of knives, spoons, and forks—three essential dining utensils. We'll trace the origins of knives from prehistoric survival tools to modern tableware, highlighting cultural shifts in dining etiquette, including the Middle Ages and anedict from King Louis XIV against sharp knives. Turning to spoons, their evolution from basic wooden versions to ornate metal designs used in ceremonies by the affluent of ancient Greece and Rome. Also, the intriguing journey of forks, from their scandalous association in Renaissance Italy to becoming a staple in households worldwide. Overall, it's a reflect on how societal changes and industrialization have democratized these utensils, making them accessible to all.
