History of Forks

The town of Forks is located on the Olympic Peninsula and is the main hub for the surrounding area. The whole area around Forks is very scenic, with driving tours, hiking opportunities, waterfalls, and hotsprings. The town makes a nice base from which to explore the region.

The word fork is derived from the Latin furca, meaning "pitchfork". Although the Greeks used [1] The fork, as an apparent serving utensil and it is also mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, in the Book of I Samuel 2:13 ("The custom of the priests with the people was that when any man offered sacrifice, the priest’s servant came, while the flesh was boiling, with a fork of three teeth in his hand..."), it wasnt commonly used in Western Europe until the 10th century.

Before the fork was introduced, Westerners were reliant on the spoon and knife as the only eating utensils. Thus, people would largely eat food with their hands, calling for a common spoon when required. Members of the aristocracy would sometimes be accustomed to manners considered more proper and hold two knives at meals and use them both to cut and transfer food to the mouth, using the spoon for soups and broth.
