I have a couple from Le Creuset like this guy:
Apparently they call it a Spatula Spoon (boooring).
However, shopping.msn.com calls it a Spoon-Spat! That sounds…exciting.
ETA I go with Spoontula.
Wow. That’s a toughie. I can’t pick, at all. They’re both fabulous.
And this thread has me giggling like a loon. It’s truly the first I’ve ever shared with SpouseO.
However it’s spelled, I’ve read that it was invented by someone named Crandall.
And good value too, owing to the price war with the store across the street - Spatuloon Barn.
I vote for ‘spatuloon’, for the simple reason that Rachel Ray has started using ‘spoonula’, presumably to stir her ‘stoop’ with.
Bah.
Spatuloon! It has a ring to it.
Husperson +1.
I vote for spatuloon.
One more vote for spatuloon. The “oontyoula” sound is too difficult to pronounce.
Sorry. I wanted to vote for a Doper but my heart just wouldn’t let me.
Im not happy with either term, but I kind of like Spatuloop… a spatula/scoop.
As for hybrid names, in university I first bought a cheap set of dishes with soup plates in them, instead of the deeper bowls I was accustomed to. I started calling the soup plates plah-bowls. Still, to this day, I mentally call them that.
