It&#8217;s a reusable utensil pack that fits easily into your pocket, purse or wallet.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>A single cutlery set ($39) comes with a stainless steel fork and spoon (with a bit of serration on one side) in a compact case about the thickness of three credit cards. I found it intuitive to take the fork and spoon out of the case and then lengthen them by sliding the top part out until they clicked into place.<\/p>\n<p>At full length, the fork and spoon are 5.5&#8243; long, slightly shorter than the standard 7&#8243;, but I didn&#8217;t find it difficult or annoying at all to hold or use them, nor did they ever inadvertently unclick back to packing mode. I\u00a0should mention that the spoon&#8217;s &#8220;knife&#8221; side is\u00a0about the same as\u00a0a butter knife, so don&#8217;t expect to cut steak with it. However, for most travel\/picnic\/tailgate items, you should be good to go.<\/p>\n<p>Worth noting is that the average American throws away more than 300 plastic utensils every year. The utensils are easy to clean and dishwater safe.<\/p>\n<p>You can order GoSun Flatware directly from its website.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, GoSun primarily makes solar products. For example, its GoSun Go is a portable solar oven that can\u00a0bake, roast, steam and boil.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Photo from GoSun website<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I actually bring silverware with my lunch to cut down on plastic usage, so I was definitely interested in accepting an offer to review\u00a0GoSun Flatware.
