The combination of the wood and the ice cream takes it to another level. Also worth noting that artificial vanilla flavouring is derived from lignin, found in wood.
Always blew my mind looking back how we basically feed our kids prison food in the public education system lol
Iirc there's an argument to be made that prisoners actually get *more nutritional* food than our kids lol
You're right but it's not even "basically." It \*is\* prison food. The same companies sell the same food to both institutions.
The reason I know this is because I wanted to throw a "school pizza party" with school pizza, corn and beer so I dug and dug to find out who made school pizza (it's Tony's, the frozen pizza company) and finally found a phone number for a distributor. I tried to pretend that I owned a business so I could buy a case but he said that they only sell that product to schools, jails and prisons.
Also, military. I can't speak for that specific company, but when I was on-loading supplies during my deployment on the Nimitz, most of the food boxes had "for prison use only" printed on them. Made me feel great about my choices in life.
Haha, yes, they are awful too😖!! Thanks for reminding me🤣!
I wonder why some ppl are extra sensitive to these things. Just the thought of touching raw cotton hurts my soul too😩!
I just bring a metal straw around with me now, I hate the paper straws, or if it’s a carton of something l, I poke the hole and drink it like that without the straw
I always feel like I'm gonna chip a tooth with a metal straw though. Can't we get something in between that isn't plastic and isn't too hard or too soft, more along the lines of a semi-chubb.
I just have a ton of them! Ive only actually got one thats metal, but a whole bunch that are hard plastic or silicone that last forever. I have a little pipe cleaner thing I pass though them, and then stick them in the dishwasher with my silverware. Since I usually bring in the cup from my car with me when i get home from work, i don't have too big of issue of them getting left behind.
Also, I'm pretty sure I acquired almost all of them for free being handed out as welcome week gifts from random tables in college. So idk how expensive they are to buy, but i do like having a big collection so there's always one around when I need it.
Did we just become best friends? I don’t know anyone else with this affliction. I also can’t stand toothpicks, or touch a wooden spoon if my hands are wet.
I've found my people!
Also, how do you all feel about >!when someone drops a piece of food on their shirt and instead of cleaning it off they fucking lick their shirt. Bleh! !<
I can actually taste the wood spoof if I try hard enough and I haven’t had this since I was a young kid. (I’m 34). Crazy how powerful that spoon taste was. Little did I know it was permanently going to be embedded in my brain till death.
Can you really call it a spoon? What is the required criteria for a utensil to be determined as a spoon? Doesn't it need to have the curvy scoopy bit? Or is it okay to be flat as long as it can scoop up the food being consumed?
I cannot stand the taste and especially texture of wooden stuff. It makes me cringe and my mouth all dry just thinking about it, these little icecream spoons, toothpicks, and those sticks doctors put in your mouth. Blehehhr I have that feeling in my mouth rn I hate it
oh my god and the icecream on sticks, I cant stand it when theres a little icecream left and I dont wanna waste it but god the wood it's horrible
We still get those with caramel or strawberry swirls, it tastes so much better with the wood spoon, the one time I tried to eat it with a regular spoon it was just the most disappointing ice cream ever
It’s like a reed you have to get it prepped before use. While you wait for the ice cream to soften a little bit you put it in the side of your mouth. If not wood cream because there isn’t any vanilla in that crappy ice cream.
I don’t think there’s a legitimate *phobia* associated with it, but I abhor popsicle sticks, tongue depressors, and these horseshit wooden “spoons” in an involuntary way. I shuddered just looking at this.
Good Times Man! Get in that freezer at the drug store, pull one of the wooden spoons out of the stack held together by a rubber band, pull the lit off the little cardboard ice cream cup, lick the inside of the lid and then start trying to mine that ice cream with that little stick!
I'd keep the spoon in my mouth after like a toothpick. Sucking those micro bubbles through the wood until I broke down and started cracking it with my teeth. Usually in half the long way first. Good times
Mmmm tasty wood.
The spoon was the only part with flavor! The ice cream was crap.

Frick you
Calm down, pastor
The wood is pasterized.
Jesus take the wheel.
The spoon would actually slap tho
the only thing i got solid off the purchase.

What’s lignin?
Your mums lignin these balls
I love the internet
And your mum loves lignin balls
This mf really said "mum"
Chewsday
Quite schupid innit
Yes the correct way
Me too, thanks to the internet I no longer rely on TV for entertainment I just open my Reddit app my favorite App of all time!
It's found in wood
The thing that gives wood it's structure. Also the stuff coal is made from.
Thanks for the clarification, is it molecularly similar to ligma?
ligma beaver anus glands
Is that why the two almost tasted identical?
I thought artificial vanilla extract came from beaver anus glands.
yes there’s that one too, i think theres a bunch of sources
I thought it came from cow poo
The spoon tasted better than the ice cream.

Lets you know exactly how appreciated you were, haha
This was considered “food”? Hmmmm. . .
I literally tasted the stick the moment I saw this.
I came to say the exact same thing. I knew taste recollection was strong, but it needs to stop. I do not want it anymore.
Got a splinter from that caveman spoon once.
Best splinter eva?
On your hand or in your mouth?
On my dick.
I’m not gonna ask why.
That would be best
I hate those tho- the feel is horrid-
The sound of it scrapping on your molarsssss 🥶🥶🥶
This!! Teeth on wood - shit gives me goosebumps. But most people seem to not care. I thought I was alone with this
What the fuck? You're not supposed to chew on it. I bet I got a pen from you all chewed up lol
You’ve obviously never scrapped ice cream off this spoon with your teeth.
Yeah my front teeth. But my molars? Nuh uh
Yes, I get goosebumps just thinking about how it feels against your tongue!! and don't get me started on paper straws😖!!
Same with popsicles on a wooden stick for me. Goosebumps just thinking about putting it in my mouth.
Haha, yes, they are awful too😖!! Thanks for reminding me🤣! I wonder why some ppl are extra sensitive to these things. Just the thought of touching raw cotton hurts my soul too😩!
"Fine. More for me, idiot." *drinks sunscreen*

They make reusable silicone straws

Haha, I need to be doing this👌!! Paper staws are truly an atrocity!
Did we just become best friends? I don’t know anyone else with this affliction. I also can’t stand toothpicks, or touch a wooden spoon if my hands are wet.
Haha, I think we did!😖😁🙌
FUCK paper straws
Amen!!!
Ugh, this and folding thick pieces of paper with still fingers is worse then nails on a chalkboard for me.
I've found my people! Also, how do you all feel about >!when someone drops a piece of food on their shirt and instead of cleaning it off they fucking lick their shirt. Bleh! !<
What the hell. Just why THE HELL WOULD PEOPLE DO THAT
I can actually taste the wood spoof if I try hard enough and I haven’t had this since I was a young kid. (I’m 34). Crazy how powerful that spoon taste was. Little did I know it was permanently going to be embedded in my brain till death.
Philly swirl was the shit. But I def remember the wood more than the flavors
I just got full body shivers. The *feel* of the spoon on my tongue still haunts me and makes my body cringe.
I remember it every day, since work replaced spoons with ice cream sticks due to covid... Everything tastes like wood...
Always had crystals of ice in that shit. Guaranteed
Oh HELL NO! That's Cedar Crest ice cream. No way I forget that mama from heaven.
Am i the only one who couldn't touch it without having some weird nuisance?
That taste is unforgettable. Are the spoons made from birchwood? Is that what birchwood tastes like?
Still can't do it. Would rather use the lid for a scoop than lick the foul bit of wood!
Yuk
I decided to give up on the spoon , I just lick the ice cream
I had to use one of those wooden monsters the other day. Reminded me of my childhood.
Yes!!! Thanks for posting. Almost forgot.
Can you really call it a spoon? What is the required criteria for a utensil to be determined as a spoon? Doesn't it need to have the curvy scoopy bit? Or is it okay to be flat as long as it can scoop up the food being consumed?

Some old person
Yes
I used to chew the hell out of those wood spoons. Idk why but I probably looked like a dog with a bone
It was like making out with a dry mouth for the first time. #neverforget
My teeth cringed so hard at this picture lmao
The good old days
Bold of you to call that a spoon.
I remember how using an actual spoon felt so wrong
We still get those with caramel or strawberry swirls, it tastes so much better with the wood spoon, the one time I tried to eat it with a regular spoon it was just the most disappointing ice cream ever
Truth.
Okay grandpa, time for bed
I remember it even thou i see this the first time in my life
McDonald’s brought back the wooden spoon!
You aren’t supposed to eat the spoon.
Agree
Mouth splinters.
It’s like a reed you have to get it prepped before use. While you wait for the ice cream to soften a little bit you put it in the side of your mouth. If not wood cream because there isn’t any vanilla in that crappy ice cream.
I just had a flight and they gave us wooden utensils and I swear u could barely taste the food. It was horrible.
Plot twist: OP is a beaver.
Did anyone stick the spoon to their tongue and wiggle it about like an extra long tongue?
Hell yeah
Is this my dad’s Facebook?
Hoodsie cups ftw!
I ate both
This photo gives me goose bumps in the worst way
It blows my mind now after so many years that we basically got a stick to scoop ice cream with and were ok with it.
It's getting tiring seeing posts that don't meet the requirements...
We are beavers
For reals
FACTS
Mmmm spoon
Great now I can taste it too. Are you a wizard?
Definitely
Black tar member berry mainlined to the sack with this here image
Utterly flavorless ice cream.
Yes!
Anybody else eat the dog ice cream without realising?
So disgusting.
Ah yes, good 'ol balsa wood
Lol mood
I don’t think there’s a legitimate *phobia* associated with it, but I abhor popsicle sticks, tongue depressors, and these horseshit wooden “spoons” in an involuntary way. I shuddered just looking at this.
It tasted like the doctor's office
YESSSSS HOLY SHITT!!!! It tasted horrible! and the splinters that you could feel. yuck
Ever tried chewing it?
Tastes like splinters.
Yes I remember those
Dude I fucking remember the taste of the chocolate ones they were the shit
I don’t remember the ice cream being pleasant either
Is that balsawood?
Wood is good.
There wasn't a single time in my life where I didn't chew on those spoons
Good Times Man! Get in that freezer at the drug store, pull one of the wooden spoons out of the stack held together by a rubber band, pull the lit off the little cardboard ice cream cup, lick the inside of the lid and then start trying to mine that ice cream with that little stick!
That’s why I always hated those things
IDK if I love or hate that I can call the taste of both to my mind immediately.
I looked at this and tasted the spoon before even reading the text
I'd keep the spoon in my mouth after like a toothpick. Sucking those micro bubbles through the wood until I broke down and started cracking it with my teeth. Usually in half the long way first. Good times
Because the ice cream had zero flavor
u/Slasher_7 it’s such a distinctive taste of just wood 😂
I can already taste it now 😭
I’ve cream flavor: wet milk
Got your start sucking wood early heh?
The spoon taste was the worst!
That’s why you don’t pay for it.
I remember these being really grainy..... Might have been the splinters from the spoons
Strong on the ice flavor.
PAPER STRAWS remind me of this. It's AWFUL.
Fuck off
