I’m staying with some friends and all of their spoons are this ridiculous shape that is clearly designed for the mouth of someone like Steven Tyler. I may have to reconsider our friendship.
There’s a reason spoons are narrow on the sides.
You might want to tell the person selling them:

And all the other sites that show the same thing when you search “lustreware soup spoon” for that matter.
Probably because they aren’t aware or just don’t care about the difference
Some soup spoons are indeed oblong like a tablespoon. But because there isn’t anything in that etsy photo above to provide context, you might miss that the heads of those spoons are most likely much larger than that of a tablespoon. Sure, they’re just as oval-shaped as what OP expects, but they’re also just as wide as the round spoon in the OP. Meaning they require just as Steven Tyler of a mouth to successfully misuse as a round soup spoon.
It’s for directly consuming the mug o’ ranch we traditionally serve with a small plate of garnish weeds in the US.
I suppose that this is the basic spoon set that excludes things like the grapefruit spoon.
Now that I realize I’ve never seen an ice cream spoon before, I’m kind of sad
You put a spoon that big in a sugar bowl and drop it in your tea and you’ll have the kind of crazily sweet iced tea they have in the American South except hot.
How did you get it that wrong? Firstly, it’s not “a”, there’s several. Secondly, they’re tablespoons.
You somehow managed to be more wrong than OP, which is unbelievable.
Those are regular spoons, not soup spoons. https://duckduckgo.com/?t=h_&q=soup+spoons&iax=images&ia=images
