The Legality of Spoons in Jersey, Channel Islands
During WW2 (World War 2), the Nazis had occupied Jersey and when the locals were getting food and various cutlery shipped over, they hid parts of weaponry and guns into the boxes, so Jersey could possibly fight back against the Germans. The Germans didn't check every single box, so weapon parts did get given to the Jersey people. It would've been the shop owners that were using the spoons, and the Germans soon noticed that shopowners were acting different than usual, so started to check more boxes when the shipments came in. They found the weaapon parts in most of the boxes and soon after, a law pased, saying that spoons were now illegal in Jersey. After the war ended on Liberation Day on the 9th May 1945, the Jersey locals never bothered to change this law, so it still exists to this day. However, it is possible to get licenses that permit the usage of spoons, for example in households, restaurants and schools (like when you get a drivers license). Sporks are legal and can be used for other spoon related foods, such as soup and ice cream.
