I have suffered permanent damage from a lack of teaspoons.
Since spending one year working a hospital which had nil
teaspoons in 1981, I am no longer able to measure coffee
for my mug with a teaspoon. I can only measure the
required amount by shaking it in from a jar.
I am unable to use any instant coffee which comes in a
tin, as it spills too easily.
As this situation has persisted for 25 years, I am
assuming that the damage to my abilities is permanent.
Further study should include what measures tea and coffee
drinkers use to manage without teaspoons and whether any
others have had unusual effects from the deprivation.
Competing interests:
I stole one teaspoon in
1972.
