Not sure if this is a Food thread or Art.
It makes me hungry. I want to see a giant bowl of baked beans beside it. The fork is 18 ft tall, so the pot of beans, maybe 45 ft tall ( 2 1/2 forks tall)?
The Fork in the Road has been put to good use. Charities hold food drives there.
The fork was a gift to mark the 75th birthday of Altadena business owner Bob Stane from his friend, Ken Marshall. The two had joked for years that a giant fork should be erected at the Pasadena intersection. Stane remembers telling Marshall, “To properly get us involved in the art situation we needed something spectacular like a fork in the road.”
Taking his words to heart, Marshall built an 18-foot tall wooden fork and rallied Stane’s other
friends to help him stick it in a Caltrans median.
Its sad Huell Howser is dead. He could have gotten a decent episode out of it.
