How do you organise your cutlery drawer? (lemmy.world)

I like having knives, forks, spoons left to right as that is how I say it "grab a knife and fork".

I am staying in an Airbnb and they have the spoons separating the knives and forks and wonder if this is in insane or maybe I am the minority/insane one?

At least here the knives and forks are paired.

Knife+Fork makes sense if you're eating thigns like pork-shops, chicken, or other large peices of meat.
Since I don't eat meat, I don't really use knives or forks; Chopsticks and spoons are my workhorses.

I love hearing about "other" (from the perspective of my own growing up) ways of eating food. We have chopsticks and use them infrequently so they are in the "everything else" drawer.
