Hunt the teaspoon

I had to play hunt the teaspoon in a major supermarket today. This hiding of teaspoons has become an annoying trend.

I don't like having to queue and wait and ask staff for a utensil just so that my child can eat a yoghurt, something that is impossible with a tea stirrer.

Please remove the stirring device and replace it with something practical that not only can be used for eating as well as stirring, but also means we don't have to queue to get them.
