ABSTRACT:
A food serving utensil includes a body that has a handle located at a proximal end and a food retaining section located at a distal end respectively. A hollow chamber extends from the proximal end to the distal end of the body and is axially seated therein. A linear opening is located adjacent to the proximal end. An actuator switch is housed within the linear opening and linearly displaced parallel to a longitudinal length thereof. The switch has a flange portion protruding outwardly from a top surface of the handle. A shaft is housed within the chamber and extends along a longitudinal length thereof. The shaft has a first end monolithically formed with the switch and a second end intercalated within the food retaining section. A stabilizing mechanism is spaced from the food retaining section and is engaged with the shaft and the body.
