Product Details


Dimensions
6” L x 2.75” W (at widest point)
Weighs 0.7 oz

Design & Functionality
Compact, interlocking and easy-to-clean the MicroBites utensil set is great for school lunches, brown bagging it and for keeping in your purse or backpack “just in case.” Made from durable nylon, the spork works just as well for salads and pasta as it does for soup. The spatula works as a spreader for cream cheese and condiments and also, of course, as a spatula for cooking away from home. The knife edge is sharp enough to slice bagels or cut steak – really!

Materials
With less than one ounce of high-temperature, nylon polymer this utensil set can withstand temperatures up to 450°F. Light weight and food-safe nylon polymer is easy to clean and very durable.

Sustainability
This set is meant to replace all of the disposable plastic utensils that end up in landfills each year. Every MicroBites set will carry more than 25lbs of verified green house emissions reductions — making them not just carbon neutral — but carbon negative. When they’ve run their course, return the utensils to Guyot Designs and they will recycle them.

Will Buy These for Friends, Very Tough

by Valarie R - 06/2010

I bought this set to take to work for eating my lunch, but when I was moving and couldn't find my kitchen knives to cut an orange, I decided to use the spreader/knife part that I had received a week before just to see if it would break--it didn't. I use the fork/spoon for soups and salads. It's not pretty, but I love that the utensils snap together to save space. Will buy more for me and for friends.

I love the microbites. I take one to work everyday! They are so light and not bulky @ all. They snap together easily even a child could do it and have no problem. I even ordered more so that I can use them as stocking stuffers this year.

I love that these snap together, and that they're small enough to fit inside my tupperware. No more figuring out what to wrap my dirty silverware in! My only complaint is that it's pretty much impossible to eat soup with the spork - it is way too shallow and whatever liquid you do pick up spills out of the spork tines. I ended up having to drink it out of the container.

These are great! I bought some for a camping trip, they were easy to pack, use, and clean. The kids loved them and the design is easy enough for them to snap together. The spreader is great for making peanut butter & jelly sandwiches or spreading cream cheese on bagels. I'm buying some more sets for work and for the kids' school lunches.

I use these little things every day with my lunch. The Spork is strong and is very well design to use as a spoon and a fork. The scrapper/knife work well even cutting steak. I even take them with me backpacking they are very light weight and clean up well. To clean them and the pot I cook with I just boil them and they wont melt.

I make my husband a lunch for work everyday and I hate using plastic utensils and if I give him our everyday silverware, he seems to lose them. When I saw these I thought I would give them a try. They are compact and convenient and I love the way they easily snap together. My husband says they are great, everything you need in one. I am definately buying more!

We haven't used these yet but I really am impressed with the appearance of quality. And, at a price that won't stress me when my 7 year-old takes them to school!

I absolutely love this product. Very sturdy and well made, and easy to slip into my lunch bag. The utensils are just the right size- not too big, not too small, just right.

I am very pleased with this product, I have been trying to find satisfactory cutlery to pack with my lunch for a long time. This is great. I have now ordered some for my daughters as well. We like the thought that now we don\'t have to use horrible canteen plastics anymore plus we are doing our little bit to saving the planet. Many thanks

The only thing I disliked about this is it's hard

by Terry M - 05/2009

1 out of 1 customers found this review helpful

The only thing I disliked about this is it's hard to eat noodles with. You know it's a good product when something silly is your only complaint. The are compact, easy to carry and easy to clean. The only problem I currently have is my roommate has stolen them. She says the spreader is the best thing for bagels and cream cheese and works better than the plastic knives at her workplace and this is reusable and she really likes red, hint, hint. I think that means I'm supposed to order her a set of her own!

I love this handy cutlery set!

by Sarah W - 04/2009

I love this handy cutlery set! It is great for when I get take-out and don't want to waste plastic utensils. I bought one for my purse and one for my backpack, so I always have one handy. The spork has worked well for soup, and was even able to handle spaghetti, although that was a little trickier b/c of the short tines. What a great way to limit waste.

They're cute and practical. I just wish they were dishwasher-safe. And it's hard for my kids to put them together (one piece nests within the other).
