Shovel shaped in design, this utensil is made to easily transfer bits of food and place them into containers or any kitchenware for use as food is being prepared. Typically made of plastic or stainless steel, a Food Scoop is made to pick up items such as chopped vegetables, fruits, meats, nuts, grated cheese, and other hard to gather ingredients after they have been cut into smaller pieces. A Food Scoop has a flat surface with three sides so the tool can be easily pushed directly into the pieces of food on a cutting board, lifting them up and keeping them positioned in the Scoop so they can be placed into mixing bowls, storage containers or skillets and cookware.
