I have never seen this. italians spin their fork in the spoon to wrap the noodles, seems to work fine. That spaghetti fork would have terrible mouth feel.
Seems like a common thing in North America. I’ve seen plenty of people use a spoon to hold the tip of their fork to spin it and ball up spaghetti (and similar noodle pasta).
I’m not even Italian, I think it’s weird. Far be it for me to tell anyone how to eat though. So I just shut my mouth and eat my spaghetti, my way.
Could be, an old Italian guy showed me the spoon as the base and fork as the spinning tool. But yeah maybe it is regional…or like giving white people a fork at an asian place

I’ve never seen an italian eat spaghetti with a spoon, but maybe it varies by region.

It’s a very Italian American thing. It’s not really something you’d see in Italy.
