    Metal forks are the problem. Sparking occurs between the sharp tips. Supposedly spoons are safe, but I don’t have any first-hand experience with this.

      Yeah, or aluminum, or knifes with the edge exposed. Essentially metal pieces close together, or sharp edges, both create sparks. Unless you have murder spoons, you are fine, I always put them in when I heat liquid, and the manual even says to do so.
