But there are other culinary accoutrements that literally have one job and only one job. Are they clever? Sure. Are they at all necessary? Not exactly.

If you have braces or never learned how to operate a knife, a corn kernel remover tops your shopping list.Image credit: Amazon You're lazy, but you also watch your cholesterol intake. Enter Quirky's egg separator, which sucks the yolks out of whites with a squeeze.Image credit: Quirky Sure you can prop other things with a taco proper, but that would be blasphemous.Image credit: Perpetual Kid With the right mold, you can (and should) turn the same basic device into a dedicated pie, quesadilla, corn dog, churro, fortune cookie, or donut maker.Image credit: Amazon A hot dog toaster just seems impractical, but maybe you have a GIANT KITCHEN. I mean, unless there's room next to the cake pop maker.Image credit: Amazon Anyone else think a strawberry stem remover might just result in a pint of smashed strawberries?Image credit: Amazon Slicers: one for a strawberry and one for a banana, with shapes that correspond to the fruit they cut.

Screw you, knives!Image credit: Amazon Curly fry cutter, for that one time you decide to make curly fries at home.Image credit: Amazon Bell pepper corer, for when you forget how knives work.Image credit: Incredible ThingsClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to viewClick to view |
