ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an improved food handling implement which in one mode of use forms a pair of separate elements which can be used individually as salad servers, while in another mode of use forms a set of tongs which can be operated by a person single handed. Each element has an elongate handle having an end portion which is angled with respect to the axis of the handle, and a connector cap for releasably connecting the elements together to enable the elements to be coupled together in approximately parallel relationship in the one mode of use, or with the angled end portions retained in facing relationship with the handles diverging away from the connector cap in the another mode of use, wherein the hand portions of the elements can be urged together or apart by virtue of the resilience of the handles.
