Saturday morning cartoons likeThe Jetsonshave led us to expect a lot.
And they’re actually useful (sort of).
Stir This for Me
Take the automatic pan stirrerfrom Uutensil.
Uutensil
Do you know how many times I’ve beenasked to stir the sauceover the course of my life?
Now I can just leave this thing there with an apology note and go play wiffleball.
The Uutensil stirrer has three speed options and a timer.
Won’t somebody please stir the sauce?
It’s like having your own sous chef.
I bought my girlfriend one and she left me.
Won’t somebody c’mon stir the sauce?
A meat thermometer that lets you monitor your meat while at your neighbor’s house bragging about your new meat thermometer.
So you might go watch the game and ruin your appetite by eating hot Cheetos or something.
The probe (grow up) can monitor internal meat temperature as well as ambient/external temperature.
Do you needa smart mugthat lets you set the temperature for your coffee and receive alerts via app?
Your coffee is ready, and will be ready for a long time.
But do you want one?
That will probably not happen with this gadget.
Your coffee is ready, and will be ready for a long time.
So this could actually be useful or a fun ridiculous gift for someone.
Not me, though, since I usually just down too-hot coffee in seconds while shaking violently.
While many smart kitchen devices aremore flash than useful, these might actually help.
What a time to be alive.
