Complete with instructions. Reminded me of the old poem:
" I eat my peas with honey;I've done it all my life
It may sound kind of funny but it keeps them on my knife"

Apparently people would actually eat peas with a knife. I've always used a fork and occasionally a spoon when I had been imbibing in adult beverages :mrgreen:
Anyway here it is in all it's glory. Probably came from a joke & novelty shop in the 1930's or 40's

Reminds me of an old funny poem:
I eat my peas with honey
I've done so all my life
It may taste rather funny
but it keeps them on my knife

I remember seeing a very old black and white cartoon where a man tipped up a knife and the peas rolled off. :lol:
