Answers.Text: Interestingly enough, this piece is also used as a fork and fits in the hand of minifigures, and the forked end can also fit into the slits of a 1x2 grill piece.

Body: <p>Recently, I've been flipping through a scan of the March 1995 edition of the LEGO Mania Magazine. Something in the corner of page 11 caught my eye:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/tO4z4.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/tO4z4.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>This is the 5th step of the "Flip &amp; Build" segment. I am absolutely puzzled; what is that yellow element that forms that arm? (And by extension, how does it clip to that 1x2 black plate?)</p>
  
  <p>Bear in mind that this is from 1995, so it's no surprise if this piece is discontinued now despite being common back then. Really, what piece is that?</p>
