Conventional fork with prongs substituted by fake finger tips, thus enabling those who prefer to eat with their fingers to do so using a proper utensil - additional chopfinger variation for oriental eating - i.e. chopsticks which also terminate in finger tips.

       Coowie, I like this idea!
"Stop eating with your fingers!"
"I'm not eating with my fingers. I'm eating with my fingerfork! Duh!"
  

       Oh darn, I read it wrong again. I thought it was a fork-like utensile that you could slid over your fingers. Its your fault [jurist]!   

       By the way [xenzag] welcome to the halfbakery! Where screaming is optional.

       Don't let my links distract you, [Susan]. You read the idea properly the first time. I just could not find a picture of a "fork ring" that had the tines pointed in any way that would be useful in eating, so I took a small liberty with the concept. [xenzag] may disagree with my sense of proportion.

       I gave you a bun for a second but retracted it after trying to eat with my new imaginary fingerfork. ... I felt unfamiliar but uncomfortable sensation in my wrist when scooping up food ... I think it has something to do with the angles involved.
