Whats the most useful "useless" invention you own Veeky Forums? 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 Veeky Forums. What treasures have you seen on the market?
They stopped selling it but I won't be buying from them again.

I always wanted one of those cuber/slicer things you push down and it chops the carrots, onions, potato whatever

Like come on man. stop being so useless.
Julian Barnes
I want a soft-serve ice cream dispenser on the front of my freezer door.
Use a knife. Like come on. You get better results by hand and with practice then with some shitty diy item. You're relying on a crutch instead of teaching yourself to get better you lazy fuck
Jack Gray
A poboy presser
Sebastian Foster
maybe he wants professional cubed food
Dominic Butler
This.
Luke Martin
cutting bagels is a fucking horrendous pain
Lincoln Jackson
>Crock pots >useless
Adam Anderson
unless your in a hurry
Joshua Wright
who is this for?
Luke Baker
It for the OP, it seems useless
Luis Ortiz
This one give me satisfactory giggle
Henry Foster
danke
Jaxon Rodriguez
this is true. i am lazy. i wont apologize for it either.
Juan Fisher
not useless I guess, my mom could have used this for my autistic little brother
Thank OP I found my wifes Valentines day gift! Asparagus peeler!
Nathan Perry
Kind of interesting. That particular gadget looks pretty wimpy, but having something that could keep a pot stirring for you could make otherwise tedious recipes a lot more convenient, or just enable you to cook something more stuff at the same time.
Charles White
I don't see how it would work unless you are holding onto it or duct tape it to side of pot
Asher Ross
Sadly it seems that OP is as useless as their whore mother
Seeing as she's six feet under, that isn't hard honestly.
you're welcome
Adrian Miller
Spotted the terrible cook. Do tell me about how a slow cooker makes it so much easier to eat healthy in your hectic lifestyle.
Camden Gutierrez
Sous vide
Bentley Foster
this has the be the winner. the garlic isn't even peeled????????? what is the point of it
Kevin Smith
You say that, but I got a mandolin as a secret santa gift and it's revolutionary.
Grayson Lopez
here's a tip for Veeky Forums 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.
Gabriel Wilson
the only good thing is that you put the garlic inside it and roll. The texture lets friction do the work to remove the garlic skin. But the image they show lmao
Gavin Stewart
A mandolin is different, it actually slices ribbed cutts and has practical use. A cuber is just you being lazy.
Lincoln Martin
do you have brain damage?
Jack Diaz
Garlic press. I am ashamed.
Also fuck you, rice cookers are legit as fuck. >rice >>perfectly dense and fluffy every time >pudding >cakes
Evan Hall
can you imagine how big a junk drawer you would need if you bought all these things? and how would you even recognize what is used for what?
Josiah Reyes
that device is for measuring servings of pasta, not for slicing through it like a cigar cutter
Gavin Parker
Do you? You clearly need help if you support the useage of these baby tools.
Elijah Rogers
rice cookers are awesome!
Nolan Rogers
It probably vibrates in an asymmetrical way, so that friction makes it turn. There's probably no way to get it to apply any real force though.
Brandon Ward
>breaking pasta don't do that retarded nigger, the pasta cooks down into the pot after a few seconds
Alexander Wilson
You know what else slices ribbed cuts?
Caleb Myers
Air fryers are for frying without the accompanying calories of oil Who the fuck leaves an open flame running all day unattended? When I'm at work a slow cooker can safely keep going 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? Electric stove griddles have plenty of use any time you don't have access to a stove.
Fuck off
Parker Hill
The fact that you put this much thought into doing something incorrectly is shocking. Just put the fucking pasta into the pot, it will cook down and be below the water very soon
Kevin James
Who the fuck peel asparagus in the first place?
Lincoln Nelson
according to Veeky Forums asparagus causes cancer. Guess I won't get getting one :(
Dominic Kelly
unironically: old women with arthritis
Christian Hughes
>Not breaking your pasta in half to give more volume to a smaller portion
A cup worth of splintered pasta is heartier then a handful of long strands.
Charles Wood
mom got one of these for christmas once
Zachary Hughes
Tha's nice all I got was a pet shrimp
Isaiah Russell
What is wrong with using a slow cooker?
Christian Robinson
because fatty need to east fast
Nathaniel Evans
if you were capable of reading you would notice that I never implied that I habitually do this, only that people who do are causing theirselves even more problems.
Bentley Roberts
apparently these things are pretty bad for the shrimp, I think the algae is barely enough to keep them alive so they always have nutrient deficiencies and stuff
Oliver Roberts
Seems like an expensive toy you put on an office-room or in a psychiatrist office.
Ian Lopez
>"useless" invention A better metric would just be unitaskers.
>a slow cooker instant pot nigga, get on my fucking level who the fuck wants to spend an entire day simmering bones into brother, I pressure cook it for an hour and it's DONE
Joseph Torres
>Not breaking your pasta in half to give more volume I'm half deaf anyway, it wouldn't make any difference.
Samuel Smith
Should I put out of misery? I just feel bad for it.
David Baker
you could just get more food for it
Josiah Cox
>garlic press made of plastic that was grinding bits of plastic into my garlic kek
Eli Foster
it hermetically sealed, nothing going to get in there. Unless I drill a hole.
Landon Evans
>Nobody has posted egglettes
Andrew Gutierrez
why
Jose Moore
why would you be in a hurry to slow cook your food?
Jackson Howard
>Americans
Carter Gray
Sealed? Do they not need air? Or does the plant provide enough in a seal environment? That's kinda cool desu
Jonathan Carter
>In the Ecosphere, they slowly starve to death due to lack of food, suffocate from inadequate oxygen, and are poisoned by their own waste >In addition, these shrimp are social creatures, but the Ecosphere starts with only four (often less, with one or more dead on arrival), and eventually only a single one is left to swim around alone, perhaps for years. this is depressing, i would try to get it out of there if possible, otherwise quickly killing it might be the better option instead of letting it slowly die
fuck
Tyler Gutierrez
>does the shrimp not need air holy fucking shit
Colton Campbell
What applications does a crockpot even have, Heating up meats at the same time? What is this even used for that a stovetop/oven can't already do?
Christopher Long
>Does the underwater breathing arthopod require oxygen?
David Allen
You can safely leave it unattended for long periods of time
Tyler Kelly
All animals require oxygen, dipshit. But shrimp get it from the water, not air. You're just as retarded as he is.
Nolan Rivera
You can do that with an electric stove? Thats not really that impressive in 2018.
Brandon Russell
>having an electric stove Now THAT is a useless invention
Thomas Wilson
The shrimp are unable to care about being alone. It literally doesn't have enough brain power to feel emotions.
Asher Martinez
>A stovbe that turns itself off when timed to >Useless
Meanwhile you'll burn your house down with your outdated gas stove when you one day fall asleep waiitng for your roast to cook.
Brandon Young
My wife got one of those Rollie brand egg dildo cookers.
>'professional' Not if it's made out of plastic amigo. I used to cook for a semi-famous guy named Matt Moran and he only ever supplied his brigade with dinky little pressed tin pasta mills that kept breaking. Professional means stainless steel or similar.
That's sexy, I want one.
Landon Turner
>i love having minimal temperature control and no ability to reach genuinely high levels of heat Fuck off, literally no chef prefers electric to gas
Jason Wright

Hudson Richardson
Electrical based stoves are still gas line built genius. Its just got a timer and a clock which is far more effecient then turning it off yourself.
Lincoln Lee
Do you not know what people mean when they say an electric stove?
Asher Sullivan
Yeah, with an instant pot you have a rice cooker, slow cooker, pressure cooker/canner, yogurt maker, saute pan, etc.
There are plenty of retarded kitchen gadgets but the instant pot isn't one of them.
Isaiah Robinson
A stove that is electric based is an electric stove. What else do you want? Your argument is a plain old 19th century fire burning stove is jsut as efficient as a more modern day stove, which adds more functions and useage to help cook, and does not hinder, nor take a chance of burning down the house.
Michael Garcia
Oh, it was bait. ok
Noah Diaz
What do you want me to do shake a ketchup bottle like some whore milking a cock. I AM GOD DAMN RED BLOODED AMERICAN! I needed to be reminded of my second amendment at all times! The only way to administer my condiments without looking like a fag is with this FUCKIN BOTTLE!
Juan Green
it might not "care" about being alone but putting social animals in isolation always has some kind of negative effect, and you still have all the other issues with it starving to death or dying from being poisoned by dirty water
Brayden Harris
I know what you're thinking. "Did he sauce six hotdogs or only five?" Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself. But being this is a 15 cl, the most masculine condiment dispenser in the world and could apply both condiments at once, you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?
Mason Butler
How is me being right bait? Elucidate.
Jonathan Reed
Electric stoves do not connect to a gas line.
Carter King
>Frying food Enjoy your early onset heart disease >Using a pan and a stove Little panlet can't cook evenly with just an open flame and a fork? Git gud >Boiling water in a pot >Being scared of parasites If you have to use any kind tools beyond your own two hands, you are weak and a genetic dead end.
Like come on man, stop being so useless
Nolan Ward
Mine does, your argument is wrong.
Nicholas Howard
Yes, this is my point. You do not know what people mean when they say electric stove. You're probably ESL or retarded, I dunno, but I'm tired of talking to you
