The more forks, the better. But if you are a stupid supporter of Al Gore's view of global warming, you should be carrying your utensils with you and keep them clean without burdening our ecosystem further. Can't have it both ways, dumbasses.

When what Vettel suggests becomes common practice we'll be eating our contraband foie gras with plastic forks. And the main course and dessert, also.

I think it's one of those strange interruptions to the flow of the dining experience to be asked, "Do you want to keep your fork?" I mean, what an odd question deserving of an awkward rejoinder. What if you dropped the fork, and put it on the plate specifically so they would take it and give you a new one? Now you have to explain why you don't want to keep the fork when you just want them to shut up and bring your entree. Jesus, the above paragraph sounds like a Curb Your Enthusiasm recap.
