how old was your baby when ...

Mine likes to hold onto the spoon when o feed her and pick up food off the table and try to get it in her mouth (mostly successful) but she certainly thinks that toys are for eating only. She's only seven months though. 

Mine is 2 and while he has the idea how to use a spoon, he refuses. So he hasn't had much practice. Don't worry, those.lightbulbs come on when they are ready. Its by age 3 that they really start grasping "human" things like eating, drinking, obeying commands, etc.

Mine started taking interest in using spoons/forks at about 11 months, she is now 13 months & is starting to actually use toys how they're supposed to other than just putting it in her mouth & she just got comfortable walking as well. I understand why you might worry but every baby is different. I would always compare my little one to all other babies especially when it compared to what age they walked because everyone else's baby was walking before a year but she's doing it now so I don't worry. Plus my little one was premature sobi take that into consideration as well to put me at ease. Your baby might be doing things other babies aren't doing yet so don't pressure her, she will get there :)
