WALL OF TEXT: FOON or SPORK

WALL OF TEXT: FOON OR SPORK. The Simpsons, season 5, ep 8, Boy-Scoutz ‘n the Hood. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrMj6XlhLrM When Bart finds out the scouts get pocket knives, he unfolds one and exclaims “cool, a spork.” That’s not what I remember. When I was a kid (and that episode was new) I remember him calling it a “foon.” I never heard the word spork until I was an adult. I remember the kids in school calling them foons. I would have made a bet Bart Simpson said foon in that episode, but this seems to be a false memory on my part. I don’t know why I would misremember that. I know I’m very late to this trend, but yeah, The Mandela Effect. Maybe there’s something to it. Someone please tell me I’m not alone.
