2. A hermaphroutensil?
The best of both worlds, and not as lamentable as a spork to boot...

Besides, look at the length of that handle... :evilgrin:

12. It depends on the genetic makeup
If tines are a genetically dominant trait and bowls recessive, for example, you may get more tined offspring than bowled. Or they may blend. Genetics is a tricky science.

Or they may not be compatable or able to produce offspring.
