1. A food serving assembly configured to remove a slice of pie without compromising a crust of the pie, said assembly comprising:
a handle; a stop having a front surface, a rear surface and an outer edge extending between said front and rear surfaces, said outer edge having an upper side and a lower side; and a blade coupled to said handle, said blade being segmented, said blade being positionable in a deflected position wherein said blade is configured to be slid beneath a slice of pie without breaking a crust of the pie, said blade being positionable in a locked position wherein said blade is configured to lift the slice of pie, said blade having an upper surface, a lower surface and an exterior edge extending between said upper and lower surfaces, said exterior edge having a back side, a first lateral side and a second lateral side, said first and second lateral sides tapering to a point at a distal end of said blade with respect to said back side such that said blade has a triangular shape, said back side of said exterior edge being coupled to said front surface of said stop such that said blade extends forwardly from said stop, said back side being positioned adjacent to said lower side of said of said outer edge of said stop, said blade having a pair of breaks extending between said first and second lateral sides, said breaks being spaced apart and distributed between said back side and said distal end to define a forward movable section, a middle movable section and a fixed section, each of said fixed and said middle movable sections having a leading edge, each of said forward and said movable sections having a rearmost edge, each of said fixed section and said middle movable section having a tab coupled to and extending forwardly from said leading edge, each of said tabs being centrally positioned on said leading edges, said middle movable section being hingedly coupled to said fixed section, said lower surface corresponding to said middle movable section abutting said tab on said fixed section when said middle movable section is positioned in a locked position such that said upper surface corresponding to said middle movable section is co-planar with said upper surface corresponding to said fixed section, said forward movable section being hingedly coupled to said middle movable section, said lower surface corresponding to said forward movable section abutting said tab on said middle movable section when said forward movable section is positioned in a locked position such that said upper surface corresponding to said forward movable section lies on a plane being co-planar with said upper surface corresponding to said middle movable section, said upper surface corresponding to each of said forward and middle movable sections being positionable at a selected angle with respect to said upper surface corresponding to said fixed section when each of said forward and movable sections is positioned in a deflected position. |
