I would add that if you use it regularly, like for everyday, you don't have to clean it.    As in, you own it; it doesn't own you.

I would add, furthermore 😀, that the choice of utensil does affect my eating experience.    The tactile pleasure of a smooth and ergonomic fork or spoon is noticeable, important to me.    Most of my "good stuff" is from the second hand market.    I choose pieces because they bring me sensual pleasure, sight and feel.    We all have different sensibilities.    DH always chooses one kind of place spoon, I another.    One of my favorites recently disappeared.    It is a 100+ year old silver plate place spoon I paid $3 for 4 pieces at a flea market, but it "eats like sterling".
