A portable reusable utensil is provided that includes an upper casing, a lower casing, and a utensil body. The utensil body is mounted in a receiving space formed between the upper casing and the lower casing detachably connected to each other for storage and easy to carry. While in use, a service end of the utensil body is facing outwards while an assembly of the upper casing and the lower casing is used as a part held with user's hand to serve food. The design makes the portable reusable utensil more convenient to use.

A portable bib includes a bib and a bowl that can be attached to and easily removed from the bib. The bib includes semi-circular upper sections and fasteners for folding the bib. By fastening the upper sections together, the bib bends slightly to conform to the neck, shoulders, and chest of the individual. The bib can also be fastened to create a folded pocket where the bowl is placed and attached to the bib. The back of the bowl is a concave surface that conforms to the abdomen of the individual. The bib may be easily unfolded for cleaning and storing.

A spoon (1) for infants includes a head portion (2) mounted on a handle (3) and is formed by a unitary skeletal frame (7) having a first opening (5) within which a finger grip element (6) is mounted and a second opening (9) within which a spooning element (10) having a plurality of food retaining pockets (11, 12) is mounted. A lip-engaging protrusion (13) is provided at an inner end of the spooning element (10). The finger grip element (6) has a plurality of spaced-apart finger grip holes (14).

The invention involves the incorporation and enablement of multiple interactive elements into high-volume consumables products to increase utility, function and features of the consumable product at minimal incremental cost and adjustment to production and manufacturing processes. The invention further reports processes and compositions that enable consumable products with differentiating features which product would otherwise be deficient for their intended use and application.

A training utensil for promoting proper use thereof by children includes an elongate handle having a predetermined length along its axis and a triangular cross-section in the form of an isosceles triangle having a larger base and two smaller equal sides. The smaller sides form substantially equal angles θ and an opposing angle γ=180°-2θ at an apex opposite the base where θ is selected to be within the range of 5°-55°. A head portion extends from one end of the handle along the axis for engaging food items. A transition portion at an end of the handle transitions from the triangular cross-section to a substantially flat cross-section overhang generally co-extensive with the base to cover a proximate end of the head portion. Color coded marker and handle surfaces guide a user to the positions of the fingers gripping the handle.
