Discussion 13 - 12/01/08

Hello Internets! Thanks for logging in!

This past Thanksgiving week I spent a lot of time in the kitchen, which led me to wonder about emerging kitchen technology.

Take a look at this site. And look at more than just the first page. This site is dedicated to cool-daddy kitchen stuff.

http://www.cnet.com/kitchen-gadgets/

How about that Blender Defender?!? When I showed that to Mr. L he immediately wanted to know how much it costs, because nothing bugs him more than to know the cat has been on the counter.

I personally think we all need our own Dough-Nu-Matics. Donuts for all!

Anyway, go take a look. Leave an opinion about at least one gadget.

Talk to me . . .

The vador tostmaker is prety cool and I think that they should make a r2-d2 version. I also love the auto peeler thing, that would have made it so much eaiser to have peeled all those potatos.

Baker,M-1 said...

Okay first is the bans at this school are really stupid. I still don't see why you can get on ebay, but you cannot look at pictures.

Second is the beer LCD thing is soo not needed in today's world. People are to lazy already, but this allows the person to not get up to get their own beer. Not good man.

Third, why is there tuperware on here?

Fourth, That Star Wars toaster is kickin'. I think I shall get that for my bro as a late B-day present.

Fifth (don't worry almost over), The floating wine bottle chain. I want that. I wonder if I got a big one, if I could float a person. That woul be butt kickin'.

And Last, The stuff on this site is random. I like it. Specially the turkey cannon. Actually I really just like the name. A turkey cannon. How cool is that? I would like aim it at people who annoy me and be like "You want a peice of me? How about soem turkey instead!" and fire that turkey at them and they will be all "Ahhhh nooo *thud* ugg" and fal down and I shall reign supreme.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

Okay, I'll calm down now.

The microwave popcorn popper from catamount is made of microwave safe borosilicate glass and has a 2.5 quart capacity. The best part is that it comes with a mesh top which lets you simply place a pad of butter on top. As the popcorn pops the butter melts and you have popcorn flavored exactly the way you want.

lathan,l-1 said...

Thats is some of the nice thins, I really like the superbowl speem. And the plant is the dream some true for most of us. But I like all of them, but ther is some that is okay for me.
The second choice I would have made to choose is the popcorn holder, just think about it if yuor haveing a party are having your little kid some friends over just bring out the popcorn.I would like to agree with matthew it would make it eaiser and be help full around the house

McCorvey,T-1 said...

Well i like the The Wilton Cookie Press Pro Ultra 2, because you can make all the different kind, of designs for cookies. And I like the Smore Maker, it would be better to make it in your kitchen, instead of makin it over a fire in the, cold weather.

rodriguez,stephen-1 said...

Well i'm just going to say the make-your-own-doughnuts is the most amazing thing in the world!!!!!! I'll just sit in my house, quit cross country and just eat all the doughnuts I can make in like an few hours. Now if only i knew where to buy it.......

Gilbreath,J-1 said...

Same format as Baker, A.

1st, the Precut Brownie Pan Set. Is. FANTABULOUS!!! Perfectly portioned brownie slices with deliciously soft edges...*drools on keyboard and is fried*

2nd, the White Mega Food Container (Yes, I'm out of order here, I know.) looks nothing like a bento box. Nothing like it. However, that doesn't take away from the value it might hold for people like my step-dad and brother, who work on construction sites and have to bring lunch that Mom makes them.

3rd...The Tabletop Cotton Candy Maker. You can make cotton candy at home, then bring it with you to the fair. How awesome is that?!

4th, I agree with Baker,A about the beer dispenser. It just make lazy Americans (you know who you are) even more lazy, and we don't want that, now, do we? Sloth is a deadly sin, after all...

5th, there are 61 pages of stuff to look through. And it's making me dizzy from looking at them all. And hungry. Anybody got an invisible sandwich?

arriola,brett-1 said...

my favorite is the remote controlled beverage cooler because im lazy and dont like to get up to go grab a soda!!

Ashley Manis said...

I love these gadgets!!
My favorites are:
the S'mores maker, its soo cute!
the ginger spoon
the map plates
the doughnut maker is really cool
the cotton candy from candy
the flatshare modular fridge
the reusable ice cubes
the soft serve ice cream maker!!!!
the dry erase fridge
the heart shaped chocolate box thing
the R2D2 soy sauce thing

But by far my most favorite is the Soda Machine. I mean, how awesome would it be to have one of those in my room?? I would have it made. I would never have to leave.

Thompson,O-1 said...

I love the coton candy maker. i wan...need it! oh and the other stuff is cool to i guess.

martines,j-1 said...

some of these things are preaty cool and could help around the kitchen, like the stirr you could set it up while you go do something else, the "i am not a paper cup" will help the enviorment by not using as many plastic cups. and the space make appliances could help by making more space on the counters

reed, k - 2 said...

I think the new kichen gagets are pretty cool expecially the new table top cottoncandy machine. I love cottoncandy if I had that machine I'd probaby eat it everyday. The price for it is 69.95I don't know if I would pay that much for it though.

mayfield,s-1 said...

I would like to have the Tabletop Cotton Candy Maker cause I love CottonCandy and it would be fun to make it yourself cause you get to be more creative with it.

Johnson,O-2 said...

I love the Wilton Cookie Press Pro Ultra 2 I want one!!!
And I love the titles to these articles like "Bread Slicer best thing since sliced bread?" Genius!!!I think that the Solar Vertical Lamp is a great idea!

edlin said...

well i really like the S'mores maker i think its pretty cool and it looks easy to use. If I could i would buy it!!

Campbell,A-4 said...

Okay...I freaking love the Beer dispenser/TV thing. Talk about a party. I also like the Vader tost thing too But a bit tooo geekish for me and that's saying a lot.

borerw-4 said...

I like the knife holder with a twist and the garden in your kitchen. the knife holder makes things interesting and the garden thing is just cool.

Auxier, Emily - 4 said...

So lately I have been craving salad.. not just any salad - but the lettuce has to be that really dark green color to make it look yummy and fresh and to top it off - some chicken on top! YUMM.. but sadly i cant find the letuce that pleases me - so the "Garden Fresh With out the Garden" is very neat to me. I feel tat some of this stuff has gone a little to far though - how lazy are we that we need a remote controled kitchen... or a remote control beverage cooler? Taking a few steps to get a drink or actuall doing work to cook your food isnt that hard... come one now. Oh and the "Baconaise" and the "Canned Bacon" just looks straight up disgusting. Yuck.

Abdul-786 said...

i liked those cookies and the popcorns i would like to have some of them they look pretty cool and the toaster and microwave is pretty cool too.

Meredith,B-6 said...

Ok i would have to say i dont really like the cookie cutter thing i mean it is creative and need but it robs you of cookie...the brownie thing is good because it'll save time and stuff..but I would have to say the Beer despenser is my favorite thing because even though you have to get up and go get more beer or w/e you dont have to miss your show or game

wallace,c-6 said...

i like the brownie thing only cause i like brownies. the other stuff isnt all that interesting. the auto peel thing wouldnt be bad either if you were a girl. cause thats a chicks job to work in the kitchen ayways.

Maness, J-6 said...

its good to venture away from inventions that will change our lives to inventions that increase the enjoyment of our cooking. the cookie cutter is bad, though, because it decreases the total cookie. blake said that, but i was going to anyways

Calderon,A-1 said...

Wilton Cookie Press Pro Ultra 2 THAT IS A GOOD idea because you just put the disk in the tube and it takes the figure that you like, but it is also a bad thing because the cookies are too small and everybody loves cookies so i think that you want to enjoy a good large cookie.

Trikosko, M-1 said...

Some of the stuff is useless like the lcd beer dispenser, maybe have a regular beer dispenser next to a tv? Im digging the popcorn butter melter though, I love melted butter on popcorn, but it is always takes up time.

Lopez, M-1~☺ said...

That's awesome. My favorite has to be the Solar Vertical Lamp. Those would come pretty handy if a lightbulb has gone out. Hmm, I'd also have to say that the metal bar of soap is pretty cool itself. I mean, come one, It's metal!!
Ah, and I'd love to take out my anger with the Throwzini's Knife Block.
Lastly, Microwave French Fry Maker. I flippin' love french fries!! :3

Copeland, Juston7 said...

the turkey cannon i think was really cool most of the times you are worried about massaging the turkey and everything but it does it for you

ferrell, a-4 said...

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. so my favorite is the personalized branding iron.. thats so cool. especially for a man. you like cook a big inch and 1/2 thick steak and you get to brand that thing with your own symbol. like "Thats MY meat!"

Sauceda, Maria=]- 6 said...

THese home appliances are awesome gifts to give to people for their house..bt i personally would not like to receive one of those because even though we use them they are not FUN.. well the beer LCD tv thing was interestng for sport fanatics.

Thompson,O-1 said...

wow that site was interesting. all of that suff was interesting, they even had sporks that wernt evil. this sigt need like an award.

Liles, T-1 said...

COTTON CANDY!!!!! This was simply pure genious, a portable Cotton Candy Machine. I really really love Cotton Candy and i hate that its only available to me the once every 2 or 3 years that i go to a carnivle or a faire, but to have it readily avalible at all times is an act of God.

Jones-C-1 said...

The cola tap is pretty amazing.It would be great for easy drinkage when you dont feel like using a cup.

Hernandez, Ruben 3rd said...

i think this is pretty cool technology..i would love to get some of it

Cole,R-1 said...

Being the big eater i am the

Dough-Nu-Matic
Brownie thing
microwave popcorn popper

all immediately grab my attention, i would gorge myself on donuts and brownies and enjoy the pop corn at times when i finally sit down and enjoy some TV or a movie

OH and the fun looking pizza dome thing, i would probably eat way to much pizza if i had one of those.

Rigsby,D-1 said...

Dough-Nu-Matic
Brownie thing
microwave popcorn popper

I love fun so i think i would love that alot if that was 2 happen.

Hollingsworth,C-1 said...

The Battery-operated potato peeler...is amazing. I hate peeling potatos with a firey passion. It would diffently pacify my kitchen. Also the "wine arc" is really pretty. Yay for physics!!

mcgown,a-1 said...

umm. yea. i really like some of the cool kitchen gadgets, but some of them i would not waste my money on. yes i know the whole point is to make technological advances, but some things i really dont think would be of much service. Just saying. I do, in contrast, love the marimba table that was on page 20 something. lol. I just contridicted what i just said because honestly i dont think it would really be used in my home anyway.

Tri-Edge said...

I've been looking at this site and found some neet things.

I love the keep your soda fizzy thing. I hate it when my Dr. Pepper goes flat. On a side note sometimes when I open a Dr. Pepper can its flat :(

oh look eaten gingerbread....OMFG they were made that way!

My grandma would love that Brownie edge device. She hates trying to cut brownies up because she almost cuts her finger XD

I would love to have Darth Vader's face on my toast =D

oh snap plates in the shape of countries? Sweet.

And finally OMFG a battery operated potato peeler! I need that.

brittain,w-2 said...

i thought the Refrigerator Fizz Saver Dispenser was pretty cool because u screw the dispenser into the top of ur 2-liter bottle and then turn it upside down, thus making ur soda from going flat becuase it keeps all the bubbles at the bottom (probably because u will never open the soda again since the dispenser is already on it)

robles,l-3 said...

The peppermill with light sounds handy when ever the lights go out. The cotton candy machine is pretty cool if you want to rotten your teeth. I also like the soda machine I would like to have one in my room. I’m not a really good fan with the Vader toaster it’s cool and all but useless for me. The beer LCD is handy so you won’t have to get up and get a beer. Still it’s not really great. The floating wine bottle looks cool.

GARRETT,K-4 said...

i like the soda idea. instead of having to turn the soda bottle upside down after every cup ypu get to make sure the soda doesnt go flat...just have a bottle thats already upside down and you wont even have to open it theres a dispenser on it.

taylor, Q - 6 said...

the alphabet cake maker is cool...i would love to have a birthday cake made in the shapes of my name..."how cool is that"...yet again they had a lot stupid kitchen stuff

Byrd,N-6 said...

I really liked the fresh garden greens without the garden thing. I think it would be cool to just cut off a piece of plant in your house and throw it into your cooking.

Cuarenta,A-6 said...

out of all the gadgets my favorite was THE REFRIGERATOR FIZZ SAVOR DISPENSER!
that is perfect for me because i love coke and i have a big family and its alway a hassle to open the coke and pour it and then close it and put it back in the frig. this way i could just poor some in my glass and close the fridge...
however it would get old to have to keep changing the bottles.

I think that starwars darkside toaster was really cool looking... i mean really... darthvader on your toast! coolest idea ever!
