Rusty Spoons are an item from the Salad Fingers series. They are a unit of metal spoons that have corroded over time. Salad Fingers enjoys feeling the sensation of rusted objects on his fingers.
Background[]
In the Salad Fingers series, one of Salad Fingers habits is feeling inanimate objects with his long fingers. When introducing himself in the first episode, Spoons, Salad Fingers states that he enjoys the feeling of rust. This fascination extends to other metal objects, such as kettles and nails.[1] In the second episode, Friends, Salad Fingers deliberately pierces his finger with a nail after noticing it, enjoying the pain. In the fourth episode, Cage, Salad Fingers screams in delight after getting his leg caught in a rusty bear trap, and continuously rubs his fingers along rusty poles after being trapped in a cage. He uses a rusty spoon to eat in various episodes, such as Picnic and Glass Brother.
Conversely, he is shown to dislike pristine metals. After discovering a metal pole outside of his house, Salad Fingers uses his fingers to identify the structure, and recoils after touching it, stating that the pole appears "to be free of all information."[2]
Newgrounds Rumble[]
Salad Fingers uses a Rusty Spoon as a weapon in Newgrounds Rumble. When using his Fierce Aerial attack, he will bring out a large Rusty Spoon to attack his opponents with.
The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls Requiem[]
Rusty Spoons appear as Loot in The Binding of Isaac: Four Souls Requiem. This card allows its user to draw one Loot card. When Rusty Spoons are used, the player chooses another player to put a random loot card underneath the activated Rusty Spoons card. The player can then use that Loot card without using a Loot play. The Rusty Spoons card is recharged at the end of the turn.
