Description: | Spoon (Bedamuni: kaafo manusé). A small piece of Coconut shell (fai) used as a spoon (kaafo manusé) to eat Pandanus porridge (kaafo).
It is forbidden to eat Pandanus with one's fingers. As the planting and eating of coconuts is also forbidden, spoons used for eating Pandanus are generally scarce and passed down from father to son.
This spoon was made by Afatema.
