Do you mind to share spoon with your friends?

Well i really don't know about my friends.. But I will surely not like to share spoon with friends.. I mean its okay with my family member but not with my friends.. And also I have never seen any of my friend sharing spoon with others.

I guess I will mind it if I am aware that my friends is sick or something like that. And yes, I do feel uncomfortable sharing utensils with them. But if the circumstances needs me to share it with them, I wouldn't hesitate. As much as possible I will not share it. Am I to be considered selfish or hypocrite on this one?

I do not want to share because she or he might have tooth decay

Hello wow2dong2, It depends on the friend if he is too close to me then i won't mind as you cannot share spoon with anyone. Moreover i am not party person i rarely go out for eating outside with friends so its been rarely i stuck in this situation but i won't mind to share spoon or straw as its OK and at home i never stuck in this situation. I know people avoid sharing it but that's not fair you can do it provided your friend is not sick as there is no harm in doing so.

Hi, I do mind. At home, each one of us have our own personal things and we are not allowing someone to use it. It may be a towel, spoon, fork, drinking glass or what ever. I think it is not good to see some one sharing a spoon. Only my Mom and Dad can do that. Thanks! Dennis

i personally will not share a spoon with a friend or anyone. there are so many germs and things out there that is contagious.Even if it is a close friend, i still would'nt because i dont know where their mouth been lol! no offense to my friends!

NO!!! I would never do this. There is no telling what they have, and I don't want them to catch what I have. That is disgusting. I had a bottled water and a lady asked for some and she put her mouth on the bottle as if it was hers. I told her to keep it. Pissed me off. Just the thought grosses me out. I'm going to grab some mouthwash now.

personally i dont like it neither. no offense meant to friends, but its somewhat gross. I wouldn't mind sharing spoon with my young kids but not with adults. i have never shared ice cream yet, goodthing.. lol. if it would be dried foods, id eat with my hands, if soup ill take a sip straight from the bowl.. lol

I also don't like the idea of sharing spoon while eating. But sometimes we have to adjust. I think most of the people don't like it but there are conditions when they have to. Its just a matter of thinking. If we think its bad, then it will feel bad.

To my wife and children may be but to other people or friends I have second thought. Because I don't what his/her activities on that moment at least my wife is my wife and children I know them very well. The most important is the healthy precaution.. but actually in our house even my wife and children not sharing their personal utensil like glass, teaspoon and plate in the time of meal..

If I have to share my spoon and straws with my family and friends, I will but to be honest I'm not comfortable with that. I used to share my spoon with my friends when I stayed in the dorms for a year but never got used to it.

Definitely not someone I'd given me the spoon used under normal circumstances. But if you need to. I think everyone should own utensils and food with them from the hygienic point of view. Have a nice day!

I don't mind sharing spoon with my friends and a lot of times when there only one spoon to eat an ice cream we tend to share the spoon and enjoy the ice cream so i personally don't mind it.

I think i mind to share with other using same tableware. But i don't care if we share one drink and meal. I just care about it when my friends is sick.

I'm quite laid back about that sort of thing. I think people get too hung up on hygiene, and then wonder why their immune system can't cope with little things. even just the other day, I was teaching my friend how to make a good gumbo, and at several points would taste it to check the seasoning, and offer her the spoon so she could try it too, and see what it was that I was doing, and the subtleties each thing adds. and neither of us got ill.

I dont mind sharing a spoon with my friend as long as I know they are not sick, but I know alot of people that do mind sharing sppons, straws, drinks etc.

There were a lot of comments about not sharing utensils if the person is sick, unfortunately there are many illnesses that are not visible all the time, herpes simplex, human papilloma virus, hepatitis, the influenza virus, all the ones that have incubation periods from 7-21 days, measles, mumps, chicken pox, diphtheria,thrush, syphilis, mononucleosis, and a host of other diseases that are there without you knowing about them until you develop the full blown disease. And many of these can kill, sharing is just not an option.

I don't mind if its someone I know and I am very close with. I have to know they do not have anything and I must feel really comfortable with that person to do that.

I don't share spoon or straw with my friends except with my girlfriend.LOLL.Sharing utensils could also be sharing of diseases like hep.b,tuberculosis and others infections.Unless I'm sure that the person I am sharing is safe I am willing to share but normally I don't share spoon.I am just not comfortable.

I am the same as you. I do mind sharing spoons with a friend while eating food. Do you not think its disgusting? I also do mind sharing straw with friends when drinking juice. However, my friends do not mind doing so. It is yours and my problem but, its a problem that i do not plan to fix. I feel exactly thee same as you. But if it is for survival then i do not mine because it becomes eat or die.
