/ck/ - Food & Cooking

[Anonymous No.10127059]

Whats the most useful "useless" invention you own /ck/? I'm compiling a list of them for research purposes. These inventions include:
>Infommercial products
>Pointless devices that make life "easier" without actually doing anything
>Air Fryers for people terrified of oil
>Crock pots and all-in-one cooking devices
>Rice cookers when a standard alluminum pot and hot water
>Coffee makers, keurigs, and tea brewers
>Electric stove griddles and grills
>Indescribably useless shit like a fucking bagel cutter

Share /ck/. What treasures have you seen on the market?

here's a tip for /ck/ users that I'm continually shocked people aren't aware of.

Want to break dry pasta in half without shit flying all over the place? Just grab it in the center with both your fists touching. The breaking point will be completely covered and you'll break the pasta just fine without any shrapnel.

I thought this was common sense but people have such difficulties breaking pasta that they literally sell short noodles in grocery stores now so I don't know what to think.

Rice cookers are vastly more convenient thanks to the pressure system. There's a reason every asian family owns one.
I'm not even sure what you're aiming at here on coffee, but it seems fucking stupid. Do you drink it with the grounds in? Do you do a pour-over for every individual cup you want to drink?

I legit don't see the point. I get a pressure cooker for steewing bones and such, but what does slow cooking even offer? The time it takes to slow cook chicken meat or pork meat, can be done in an hour in a standard oven. It seems entirely situational, or really focused on the fact you know what you'd want to cook 6-8 hours ahead of time. I can only see it being useful for big family dinners and planned events, not everyday useage.

Cute. I work 6AM to 4PM. I have more then enough time to cook a decent dinner at eat by 5:30-7:00 when I get home. The fact you somehow lack that energy astounds me. but then again, you probably devote all your time to the idiot box known as television when you get home.

Internet forums require activity and interaction. TV requires you to shit on your ass and waste time starting at a radioactive screen while your brain becomes mush
