Kitchen utensils as medical metaphors

Little fork – Fourchette

In medicine, it’s not only food and drink that are used as analogies. Kitchen utensils also are part of the banquet – an example on this improbable blog was the tumbler test.

Other kitchen ware includes:

Fourchette – little fork (very popular post)

Acetabulum – bowl

Dinner-fork deformity

Spoon-shaped nails

BONUS. A banquet cannot be complete without those who serve food.
