I would say teaspoon size which is about what's in your regular eating spoon if it were bigger they'd say tablespoon which is obviously a lot bigger than what most people use to eat their dinner with. Unless it's mac and cheese and then tablespoon would make sense.

A “regular eating spoon” is usually a tablespoon, hence the name. A teaspoon is typically used for adding sugar to, or stirring, coffee or tea, or eating desserts.

Teaspoons should not be used for eating dessert. You default to a dessert fork, and use a dessert spoon (larger than a teaspoon) for things like ice-cream.
