These spoons have a weird flattened part on the side. I thought they might be worn down from stirring at first but we have about a dozen of identical looking ones so that theory is out. Anyone know?

    I believe what you have there is an ice cream spoon. Thinner on one side to aid ‘slicing’ through the ice cream.

      Interesting. I always thought ice cream spoons had a flat top.

        Not always. Tbf if it’s the size of a teaspoon it’s probably a cream spoon. If it’s the size of a dessert spoon it’s probably a saucier spoon. Needs more banana for scale.

            Then my guess would be a saucier spoon. Oooh look at you with a set of sauce spoons! Using them to eat Cheerios.
