They look like little forks.

And I can tell ya what to do with 'em all right.        hahahahaha

it's Pimpy who is trying to work out forks!

Remember,  it's spooning that leads to forking                

egg separator beats spoon rest anyway.

This whole thing seems very biased to me!  Why only spoons?  How about a knife rest, or even more importantly, a fork rest.  For instance, you could have a fork rest with words printed on it saying, "Hey, mate!  Give your fork a rest!"  You may laugh, but it is very difficult to come up with fork humor.

as seen in the pics back there, some forks come with their own rests built in

as for the rest

forked if I know

I just thought of one probably suited for gifts at a bacheklors party though

"rest your fork here" written on the rester which could be a shape like they make different shapes for salt and pepper shakers an stuff, or make those german beer mugs with faces on them, or like in my utencil holder back there with the tongue poking out

Well, isn't that smart?  

DEB

Spoon rest.. Pffffft.. As if I need more things that won't get washed cluttering up my kitchen sink 

I usually just use the top of the pan 

bring water to the boil before adding pasta, bit iof oil and salt to the water too
