I'm staying with some friends and all of their spoons are this ridiculous shape that is clearly designed for the mouth of someone like Steven Tyler. I may have to reconsider our friendship.
There's a reason spoons are narrow on the sides.

It's a soup spoon. It doesn't seem that unusual. You aren't supposed to stick the entire spoon in your mouth.
mouth ladle?
You aren't supposed to, but you definitely should. Stare everyone deeply in their eyeballs and stick the whole bowl of the spoon in your mouth. Then add everyone else's spoons to your mouth one at a time. Keep eye-contact.
This is correct. I'm old, and when I was a girl every home had soup spoons - along with teaspoons, dessert spoons and tablespoons. They appear to have died out, who knows why*. Some of my friends have heritage sets, I don't. I eat my soup with a dessert spoon, like an ignorant youth.
** On reflection, maybe it's a measuring thing? Baking recipes use teaspoons and tablespoons, but never soup spoons.
Never seen a soup spoon like that in Europe. Everyone has a variant of these though
I've lived in the UK since birth and have always had soup spoons.
I thought, "maybe it's a middle class thing", but it's not like they're expensive and they last forever.

Restaurants still have soup spoons
Fancy or old fashioned places.
Phew.
Idk, I never had problems getting the business part of the spoon into my mouth.
Never could get the whole handle too though...
Exactly that.
You don't stick the whole thing in your mouth?
big spoon currently in my mouth
It's a low mug.
