How twisted is this character? Think about it, ponies have no fingers. Just hooves? So how would they use a spoon?
In real life, the "silver spoon" is used as representation for someone who is spoiled, having many luxuries that others would not have. "Silver" meaning the luxuries and "Spoon" meaning 'to be fed' or spoiled with such luxuries. This is often associated with rich snobbish people.
