[borat's voice] I like! How much?

I didn't see this post before I just made a new thread about it, but I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks there should be eating utensils!! http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/220835-food-and-eating/

So as I was playing today, I was thinking that there's not much you can do with certain vegetables other than eat them. For example: I think it would be fun if you could take a green pepper, an open can of spaghetti, and a cooking pot over a campfire and be able to create "stuffed green peppers". Another thought was a way to eat faster. As it stands, you have to eat with your fingers, which I can imagine gets pretty sloppy. But what if you could find a fork or spoon (or even a "spork")? All those pubs, diners, and houses you search and not single eating utensil? So carry a fork or spoon with you (perhaps it would take up 1x1 inventory), drag it over an open container of food, and decrease the time it takes to "Eat All".

I'm not asking to change the behavior of all the zombies. I'm saying add a secondary characteristic trait that is only associated with zombies in large numbers. Could you imagine (often) being chased by 10 or more zombies at once?

I've been playing DayZ for over a year now but only recently started playing with friends. My friends and I agree that the REAL threat in this game are not the zombies but actually other players that are strangers to us. Looting is fun, but sometimes you feel like you've got all you need. So then what? Kill a zombie here and there or go hunt other players? I think it would be beneficial to the game if hordes of zombies were added. My thought is that on a regular server, these hordes of zombies would be a little slower in movement, but would arrive in groups. Their attacks would be just as deadly because they would inflict the same amount of damage as a fast zombie, but with the difference only being their movement and likelihood to move in numbers. We have fast zombies now, but why can't we have both?
