How do you organise your cutlery drawer? (lemmy.world)

I like having knives, forks, spoons left to right as that is how I say it "grab a knife and fork".

I am staying in an Airbnb and they have the spoons separating the knives and forks and wonder if this is in insane or maybe I am the minority/insane one?

That's complete anarchy; I hope you corrected it!

You grab a knife, knife and fork, a fork, a fork and spoon or a just spoon, you never grab a knife and spoon.

I'm glad someone else is outraged as I was, enough to make a shit post about it on the internet anyway.

It's worse than mixing dessert and soup spoons!

Wouldn't it be more ergonomic to have some space between commonly-paired utensils when grabbing them?
