    It sounds like a boss' dream: pen toppers that double up as cutlery meaning a worker never has to leave their desk at lunchtime again.

    The Dine Ink Pen Utensil Set is made of plastic and includes a fork, spoon and knife topper.

    They can each be slotted onto the end of any standard ballpoint pen, meaning the pen can be used in the traditional way before being flipped over and becoming a utensil.

    The desk cutlery set is available from the Fred and Friends store on Amazon and a set of three toppers, with pens, costs $8.49 (£5.49).

    Its description said: 'Ever found yourself sitting at your desk all set to eat lunch and realize you have no utensils to use? Then you are in desperate need of the Dine Ink Pen Utensil Set.

    'Each one of these cool pens has a cap with a cool and convenient eating utensil built right in to it.

    'A fork, a spoon and a knife are at your fingertips, ready to use at a moment's notice.'
    The makers continue 'Our Dine Ink Utensil Set is pencap cutlery for the cubicle captive.

    'You decided to take the stairs down to the office cafeteria, got your tray and ordered your food, decided to take the elevator back up to your cube, and as you sit down your discover you forgot utensils.

    Customer reviews claim that the lightweight plastic toppers - which weigh around 59g each - are 'sturdy and well made' with no sharp edges.

    It adds that the toppers can also stand up to the 'heaviest fork- or spoonful.'

    Once they have been used, the topped can be removed and washed. Each topper is seven inches long, half an inch tall and an inch wide.

    Why would you need to give these out as secret santa pressies?

    They give you free plastic cutlery in KFC, don't they?

    Aye, we can use computers but a pen?

    I suppose you have very neat handwriting Medro? Autistics often do.

    Because they would make a humerous present for someone.

    I'm not sure if they do. I thought most people ate with their hands in fast food restaurants.

    Can't abide seeing grown men with football stuff on. That should all stop once you are in your early 20's.

    This looks a good idea for Rangers fans as they are the ones who seem to find it hard to navigate their way down stairs without falling over. <whistle>
