And if you're me, it will plop right off the spoon onto the floor. (lol) That's my luck! V

Hi,

Try pointing it down when you squeeze it.  This might help.  Also, squeeze 
it from the back of the spoon to the front because the end is smaller and 
the food that's at the back will help push the food at the front towards the 
front and out on to the spoon.
