The dining sock is an item that belongs to the Flying Dutchman that first appears in the episode "Your Shoe's Untied." He uses the sock to eat with and he cannot eat anything without it.
Description[]
The dining sock is a regular blue-striped sock. It seems to be pretty durable since SpongeBob and the Flying Dutchman were pulling on it hardly. Though, the Dutchman tells SpongeBob to stop because too much pulling would "stretch out the elastic."
