I'd say those are actually useful. Never tried lining up taco shells on a plate to begin stuffing them? Just for them to fall and topple over, causing your ingredients to spill on your plate?

Pic is moreso a serving style rather than cooking equipment.

For me, the most useless cooking equipment is a flour sifter. Takes longer, and requires more manual labour due to having to repeatedly press the trigger. Just use a normal metal mesh strainer and tap/shake it to let the flour go through.

My mother bought a 10 pound electrical appliance which only peels potatoes and nothing else (one potato at a time).

One of my friends had a juice press kinda like my pic. It was about 3 feet tall and only good for citrus. He only used it 1-2x a year. When he moved into my apartment he tried to put the thing on our kitchen counter but I made him keep it in his closet (I tried to get him to throw it away but he wouldn't).

you toast them and then they don't shatter. you also have a fork to pick up and eat anything that falls out. i really don't have that many problems so i think it is that most people don't toast them
