Maybe east TN is strange be we call the smaller of two spoons a tea spoon, and we also have the measuring kind.

Nice mix by the way. Im anxious to try and send some shrooms to my brother this winter.

I dont know, here in TN we use mighty big spoons
The plastic spoon on the honey tub in my last picture literally ended up in southeast TN a few hours later, coincidentally, and I have noticed how y'all tend to prefer the 'heaping' spoons of this honey... East TN is one of my favorite places to go for recreation and I kind of regret moving away. I might move back some day; it really is cool there and I have many many great memories. I was born and raised in Southern California, actually, and my family (4th generation in California) always called the little flatware spoon "teaspoons" and the bigguns "tablespoons," so I assumed that's what people called 'em everywhere. We never drank tea, though.


Anyhow, I took a precise measuring teaspoon and used water to verify that my flatware and the plastic disposable spoons held the same volume, which they in fact did exactly.
