I'm always eager to hear about improved tools, got a link to some equal-length spatongs? You’re right, they suck for serving salad.

This one is less than optimal, a pain to use as tongs. Envision buying a set of tongs of DIFFERENT LENGTHS, such as pictured here.

It sounds a little awkward to say "Spatongs" (I bet you're saying it out loud right now), which sounds like a tool for retreiving cast-off bathing suits from jacuzzis, but the plural might be more technically accurate. Then again, it's just a barbecue tool and I should relax.
