Pretty inexpensive compared to some websites (where they're anywhere from 12-19 dollars, though the 19 dollar one I found DID have Star Trek etchings. Tempting, but I'm on a budget.) Great for packpacking as it cuts down on the number of eating apparatuses you need to carry.
Great tool for every meal. First thing to notice is how light it is for our family of four to carry only one each for our camp outs. Secondly, this works well enough to eat a leafy salad. And it is not just for eating with. It is such a good tool for mixing that I sometimes use it in the kitchen because of how well you can scoop and toss in a dish.
