Danger of wooden kitchen utensils

[ASSEMbler]

I was making dinner and the ladle snapped.

The handle then hit the rim of the pot, which flipped up
and towards me. I was covered in boiling food.

I have burns on my face, arm and leg now.

If you have wooden or plastic ladles get rid of them for
metal, it's too dangerous!!!

[Cyantist]

You seem to have terrible "luck".

Don't be a man, if you think theres a legitimate problem, go to the hospital and get well soon!

Jesus Christ Kev you never get it easy do you? Karma needs to sort its shit out.

You can't help but find that amusing as if it came straight out of some sitcom. Honestly though, get some cream on the burns if you haven't done so already.

This one time I had the gas on my stove igniting for 10 mins. When I realized it and turned the stove on the flame shot out 3 feet. I barely dodged it.

[ASSEMbler]

It's not really bad luck, just life.

I have a ton of awesome things that happen.

Don't you hate it when you try to read a phrase and have to read every single word on its own and puzzle it together once you're done because the author didn't give a shit? What's so hard about a . or a ,?

Can't say I've had any Wooden utensils break so far on me. I hate using plastic as they can taint the food.

Yes, plastic is very bad because of biphenol

Wow I got only one thing to say, don't get on the bad side of your can opener or turkey carver.

It's a regional dialect of English with it's own grammar rules. Localized entirely to 266 (My address) in North Scituate Rhode Island USA.

That and I type so fast I never notice my grammatical errors

Get well soon Kev, how thick was the ladle? It must of gotten weak from the heat.

[ASSEMbler]

It was a good size, but bamboo and it broke easily.

I am confused on how did you broke it, the are generally quite thick wood and do require a lot of strength to break. I normally use wood, although I replace them every year or so. Metal is bad as they can scratch the fuck out of the non stick coating and as mentioned plastic is bad.

I tend to break a lot of stuff with my hands. I have a bad habit of crushing things... snapping toothbrushes in half while brushing... cracking my computer mice

[Barc0de]

you're a trouble-magnet mate, I hope you get well soon!

:shrug: hopefully they're not bad burn buddy.

Given the topic title I half expected you to say they had set on fire on you or a link to a video of them on fire for someone else.

Still... a snapped ladle... it is still sort of funny you have to laugh to keep yourself from crying, eh?

I've been burned several times so I know how much it sucks - hopefully you kept the affected areas under cold running water for 15 mins and as and when it blisters avoid popping them if at all possible. On one of my burns a friend had an OCDish decisre to lance boils and he kept trying to stab it with his pen at school. Eventually he got a lucky stab and the burn got infected - not good :(

Tip: Buy proper wood utensils, if you need to crush things then do it before you start cooking. Normally I crush in a pad are tomatoes and you should be able to do this without too much force.

If you are breaking tooth brushes while brushing then you are brushing far too hard and are probably damaging the enamel..
