So after discovering that my second slotted spoon melted somewhat (only discovered AFTER i ate dinner, there goes my stress , but it didn't look like it had gotten into it rather just accumulated at the end of it), i am now out two utencils. I never leave them in the pot when i cook (they have thier own plate). I guess thats what happens when i buy cheap ones. As of right now i'm down too: two metal ones (one ladle, one flipper) and a plastic flipper. Originally, i went plastic because of the as seen on tv green pan i got (biggest piece of junk ever, but thats another story).
Ideas on what i should get?

My favorite brand of cooking utensil is Oxo brand, you can find them in stores and online at the evil website. I have enjoyed the use of every single thing I ever bought from them. Very good stuff.

If you're going through hell, keep going. ~Winston Churchill
yes, they may seem expensive, but you'll have them until you are old --like me.
Heat resistant and clean right up.
Do not stain, warp, or do any of the things that make the plastic things "oogey".
I also have a stainless steel set that I have owned since
the dinosaurs roamed the earth.
Those babies are indestructible. (the utensils, not the dinos)
The one thing I never skimp on is kitchen ware and appliances. Invest in the better product or you'll just keep replacing things over and over.

Misdiagnosed for 25+ years; finally DXed on 11/01/10. I figured it out myself. Double DQ2 genes. This thing tried to kill me. I view Celiac as a fire breathing dragon --and I have run my sword right through his throat.
I got silicone ones too - another good thing is that they come in great colors too (in the uk at least).
I now have EVERYTHING in purple - utensils, toaster, spoon rests, colander...
It was expensive, but no one doubts which is my gluten-free stuff now.
I wonder if you could ask a few people for a cheeky early Christmas gift? Or maybe swap a utensil for some lovely homebaked gluten-free goodies.
I know if any of my family or friends were stuck I'd handle the price of a spatula for them.
Just trying to get a bit creative, I remember being broke...

Great, so you get to feel better AND have a cheerful kitchen.
Fingers crossed your family pick up the hint quickly...
