Abstract
Folding plastic tongs for serving food items are disclosed. The tongs have arms joined at a hinge and extending in a lengthwise direction from the hinge. A first protrusion extends from an inner surface of the first arm and a second protrusion extends from an inner surface of the second arm. The first protrusion and the second protrusion are configured to connect to each other to restrain an opening movement of the arms. Gripping portions are formed at ends of each of the arms. The hinge is configured to allow the arms to open to a position such that the first arm forms at least an obtuse angle with the second arm when the first protrusion and the second protrusion are not connected.
