The eggs should not be eaten with a metal spoon, actually comes from a time, and so on were made in the cutlery in silver only. This then went on and made for a not very appetizing taste. The normal Chromaganbesteck today should really affect the taste. And yet I feel the enjoyment of eggs with metal spoons as not pleasant. Is it due to the cold metal? I dont know. But there are plastic spoons and mother of pearl. The latter is for me personally a little "to much". And in the plastic spoons, there are always candidates who were pressed unclean, with ridge off a misshapen spoons area and so on. This spoon Emsa I like very much, because they even look good, have been made clean and in shape for me a perfect Mundhaptik. So the feeling in the mouth is true. Not too big, not too small, no burr interferes, simply pleasant. My conclusion: Over and over again!
