Peter Moore (one of my favourite travel writers) has just written a funny piece for the Guardian on the cutlery his kid received on a recent Qantas flight.
Apparently they were designed by the Wiggles, who should probably stick with singing and dancing and forget about the cutlery/furniture design arena.
As Peter says, the serrated bits are on the most useless part of the knife, once the spoon is in your child’s mouth it can’t be pulled out again, and the fork isn’t designed to scoop or spear food.
What were Qantas thinking? The funniest thing is the absolute vitriol the article has received in the comments section - people are calling him middle class (and worse) for daring to point it out, nobody is calling Qantas ridiculous for purchasing and distributing cutlery with style over substance.

sorry but I gotta agree with the flamers - boring article, who gives a flying one…….
