I use the term “toothpick” lightly as skewers (fancy or not) or even pretzel sticks do double duty as an edible version of the tool. If it’s a festive occasion, decked-out, frilly and flag-topped picks are also very popular.
What food can you put on a toothpick?
Meatballs or cheeseballsSeared tuna bitesMini sandwichesRoll-upsCaprese or Greek salad ingredientsAntipastoMeat and cheeseBacon-wrapped pineapple, dates, or meatOlives
