First Look at a Cutlery-Eating Woman Who Ingested 78 Forks and Spoons Posted: Oct 29, 09 Comments: 2 Views: 1,015 Margaret Daalman is a cutlery-eating woman. The 52-year-old Dutch lady went to the hospital complaining of a stomachache, and a subsequent X-ray showed a gigantic mass of cutlery lodged in her stomach. In total the cutlery-eating woman ingested 78 spoons and forks. During surgery doctors were able to remove the articles one by one and the patient was able to make a full recovery after being diagnosed with a borderline personality disorder. Ms. Daalman explained that, “I don’t know why but I felt an urge to eat the silverware—I could not help myself.” The case of the cutlery-eating woman is actually over 30 years old, but the images were published for the first time this week in a Dutch medical magazine after a doctor working at a hospital in Sittard, Netherlands responded to the magazine’s request for readers to send in examples of bizarre medical stories.
