What are the environmental impacts of a wooden spoon?

A wooden spoon is made of wood so a tree must be cut down. After the tree is cut down we have less oxygen because plants give off oxygen. With less oxygen a fewer amount of people are able to live and some poor animals such as squirrels or birds will lose their home. Less shelter means less protection and less protection leaves the animals out in the cold and then they die when a predator attacks them for food that is one source of food lessfor us. Less food means less humans and less human can be looked at in two aspects. It can be good or bad. Good because it means less food has to be produced for people to survive off of. Bad because less humans also means less people to do future work and help make the world a better place. It takes all of us to make the world a better place and decreasing that number is not going to help the world very much. The other good things about this is that trees can be regrown so if a tree or plant has been dug up plant another one in its place.

Asked by Wiki User

I use a wooden spoons for cooking because they to not scrape the surface of metal and non-stick cookware. Also, they tend not to warp in extreme heat like plastic spoons, and are generally durable and reliable.

Also, many people believe that bacteria grows faster on plastic and metal spoons. Wooden spoons are biodegradable and they tend to be a good shape for stirring!

Asked by Wiki User

You should use a wooden spoon when cooking on a hob instead of metal utensils as the metal utensils get very hot .Wood doesnt get very hot as it is a bad conductor of heat this means it has good properties as a utensil where as metal is a very good conductor of heat and gets hot very quickly . If you leave ametal utensil in a pan by accident remove it wearing oven gloves as it could be very hot !!

Why use a wooden spoon as opposed to a metal spoon when making banana nut bread?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Some metal utensils are of very poor quality (like the cheap ones you buy at your local grocers in kitchenware). What can happen is that the coating could come off and end up in your food. This generally happens after repeated use in foods that have a high acid content (i.e. spaghetti sauce, tomato soup, lemon/lime juice added recipes, etc.) TRUST ME, IT'S A NASTY TASTE!!! A good wooden utensil, that is properly sealed and taken care of does not alter the quality food.

Why does the handle of a metal spoon got hotter than a wooden spoon?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Metal is a good conductor of heat. Wood is not a good conductor of heat, although I wouldn't exactly call it an insulator of heat either.

If you put a wooden spoon halfway into a pot of hot water, the dry part of the spoon will not get hot even though the wet half will be as hot as the water is, if you leave it in for a while.

But if you heat up a wooden spoon and keep it dry, let's say by leaving it on a baking sheet and baking it in the oven along with some cookies, you may be able to grab the spoon and pick it up even though it's hot. There's no way you could do that with a metal spoon because you'd "feel" the heat more with metal. The heat would be conducted from the metal spoon to your skin, but a wooden spoon won't conduct much heat to you.
