Default Plastic Spoon - What does it measure?

Help! My teens lost all my measuring spoons and today is my first day of restarting and I'm measuring all my foods. I do have a plastic spoon, does it measure a teaspoon or a tablespoon. Its the standard spoon you get in a picnic set of forks, knives and spoons. Help!

I know this is a silly question but could anyone take a plastic spoon and check if it measures a teaspoon? I use it to eat peanut butter at work for snacks, and I'm trying to have a somewhat level plastic spoon worth of it. I need it to put into Fitday. Also I need to measure salad dressing the same way.
I really would appriciate it.

I measured a teaspoon shaped spoon - not the rounder one that you would use for soup - and it was 1 tsp. But different manufacturers make different sized spoons so my spoon may not be the same as yours.

It would be easier and less worrisome for you to get yourself another set of spoons.
