A teeny gltch in the matrix...

So I'm in our assisted living place dining room for dinner. Sometimes we have have paper type plates, and plastic ware vs the usual ceramic dishes & metal utensils.

We get soup before the main choices. I open my bigger black (vs white) plastic ware.
A fork, and a knife.
Minus both spoons! Of course, I then get a proper set.

So today I'm wondering thinking of the films you'd see of, say, of bottles being filled in mass production.

Is there like a single catchment holder where each untensil is dropped into, or are they all dropped in at once. Then the batch is wrapped up in plastic.

Anyway, if a separate drop for each- did one person eventually get the mysterious set with the missing spoons included.
So they get: 1 fork, 1 knife, 2 soup spoons, and 2 regular spoons.

Idk why I find that hilarious, but I do! 😄

1. The trick is not to try and [obtain] a spoon

It’s to know there is no spoon in the first place

6. 🤔

Is that getting into existential territory? 🤔🤔😄

2. Or you could ask

How are the dining staff re-sealing the packages after stealing random spoons?
