Talking of disability aids, I did get this cool spoon recently which you can use without any grip at all. It has a long handle which can be bent to fit on your arm and once you get it right it's really quite effective.
At the moment it lets me about half a meal without help (apart from putting it on) in certain situations with my arm supported, and I can even use it with my hand splints on
ID two photos showing an adaptive spoon with a long, curled grey handle. In the first Photo it’s is lying on a tray next to a bowl of rice and an adapted mug. In the second it's been around echos wrist while they eat rice sat in bed with their arm supported by a pillow / end ID
( the company I got it from it's called Active hands)
Okay just checked this website out and ily op!! They have so many good aids omfg!!
Active Hands is one of my favourite sources of disability aids!
They specialise in aids for people who have upper limb impairments and have an incredible range of stuff. It was started by a quadriplegic guy who found it hard to find quality products online/ even know what products exist and it’s like a treasure trove of useful things. I’ve never had a bad product from them.
The range is incredible too: they have things for hobbies (including gym equipment, fishing gear, playing card holders, gardening equipment, kayak equipment), personal care stuff (like tabletop nail clippers, things to make aerosols easier, one handed hair ties) cooking and eating stuff (one handed chopping boards, adapted cutlery of all kinds, jar and bottle openers).
