Spiralizers are neat tools, those cuts would be hard as fuck to make with a knife.

Those spoonless containers look kind of cool.

>> No.12021440

With the exception of the spiral cutter, all of those tools are completely useless to anybody who owns a knife and hasn't suffered a stroke. Who the fuck is slicing a banana and thinking "damn this sure is tough, if only I had a $20 claw to do it for me"?

For some unitaskers I understand they can help people with issues but most of these are dumb. Why would wou be cutting grapes? If you're at the point where an entire grape is too much and you can't cut them either I doubt you're in shape to even use the tool. And what is the cookie oven even supposed to help with? I'd also argue the pizza cutter one makes it even harder.

I switched out my spiralizer for a gadget similar to pic related. Instead of making endless "zoodles" or whatever, the julienne slicer makes manageable sized ones from cucumber, zucchini, carrots, and whatever else. Plus it's smaller than a spiralizer, better quality, and has several functions. All the sliced, shredded, or julienned stuff stays contained instead of making a mess.
>>12021395
Yes goy, buy these Chinese gadgets for only $99.99!
>>12021415
That's an interesting perspective, but I'm pretty sure they were invented for people who are retarded in the kitchen. I'm sure a bunch of them could be great for people with arthritis and other mobility issues though. Growing up my mom, who was cooking illiterate, had all kinds of stupid kitchen gadgets that could easily replaced by a simple chef knife and basic knife skills.
>>12021475
Good on you. If people are stupid enough to pay out the ass for this crap then go for it.
>>12021490
I still don't get the point. I just cut the avocado, take out the pit, then scoop out the meat with a spoon.
>>12021523
You shouldn't even have to smell it. You can tell if it's good just by how long you've had it, how it looks, and how it feels.
>>12021646
This one mystifies me. Why would I pour drinks using a spoon?
>>12021757
I can't figure out the cookie oven at all. Even if you live in a 300 sq. ft. NYC closet, it makes more sense to buy a toaster oven or, as these closet living NYC faggots do, just eat a raw diet. As for the pizza cutter, it assumes that the pizza will always be the same size as the cutter. I don't see how that tool is easier than cutting it up with a chef knife or scissors as I've seen some people do.

The “food sniffer” thing is intriguing, though. Maybe 4chan can have its own spinoff, the brap sniffer, which tells you if a brap is safe to sniff. It’d be a lot cheaper too, since it would be just hardwired to “safe”.
