Kitchen Collections - Tacky Tourist Spoons
No fancy wall holder collecting dust for me - I use my tacky tourist spoons! Like my collection of tacky tourist mugs, each one represents a city I have travelled to (and a few prov/states). But unlike my collection of tacky tourist mugs, I didn't buy a single spoon while travelling. They're all from goodwill stores here at home. (50 cents versus $5 each!)

Like you I use my "tacky tourist spoons" and they are especially interesting when having guests for dinner - conversation turnabouts they are. I bought many of mine at their designated locations and they were once on my wall. Approximately 15 spoons later, and an unwanted inheritance of about 30, I stopped buying them and took them off the wall. Sometimes I worry about some of the finishes and if I should be using them but for as often as I do and never with anything acidic or hot, they should not contaminate me or my food. Putting things to other uses is a good thing.
It never occurred to me that perhaps these teaspoons are not food safe!! Maybe that explains my early dementia... :)
