I have a very well-stocked kitchen. I mean, it makes sense. I love to cook so, of course, I take very good care of my kitchen. I am always on the lookout for things that will make my cooking process easier and, even better, I am constantly getting little gifts of trinkets from my mother, who also knows of my love for cooking.
The one thing that drives me crazy, though, is finding products that are just silly, stupid and all-around useless for the kitchen. That is how I slowly came across these 10 most useless kitchen gadgets EVER. Although I'm sure these seemed like a good idea to whoever invented them, I think they're just a huge, huge waste of money. Take a look and, remember, do NOT buy any of these! They're just dumb.
Jalapeño Roasting Rack
Are they SERIOUS? I mean, I love jalapeño poppers as much as the next gal, but do we really need to waste money for this roasting rack? There HAS to be a simpler way…
From Amazon, $15.
Sandwich Cookie Dipper
People, WHY do we need a little toothbrush-looking thing to dip cookies?! Can't we just use the old fashioned method of just, you know, holding the cookies ourselves?
From The Fancy, $15.
Apple Peeler & Slicer
This is possibly the scariest thing I have ever seen! Honestly, it looks to me like it's made to cut your finger off as a weird torture device. I do NOT believe it's safe.
From Amazon, $13.
Butter Spreader Stick
What… Just… What…? Why do we need a device to spread butter on corn? I don't get it. Is spreading butter on corn that difficult? I mean, I never had a hard time with it but perhaps I am doing it wrong?
From Amazon, $4.
Pizza Scissors
WHY?!?! Why does this exist?! Why do we need to cut our pizzas with scissors? Are all the knives in the world gone? Seriously. Why does this exist???
From DinoDirect, $18.
Quesadilla Maker
I love quesadillas, so you might be surprised to find out how much I loathe this stupid thing. Guys, making a quesadilla takes nothing more than a pan and a spatula. Do NOT waste your money on this!
From Target, $20.
Onion Pink Goggles
Okay, pink is cute and all–but why do we need goggles to protect our eyes from onions?! Can't we just use sunglasses or something that doesn't cost any extra money and has exactly ONE purpose?
From Bed Bath & Beyond, $20.
Pineapple Slicer
First of all, this is weird-looking. Secondly, they're not actually slices but spirals. Thirdly, slicing a pineapple isn't the hardest thing in the world but this device looks like it might be!
From Amazon, $15.
Hot Dog Toaster
This is a hot dog… toaster. I want you to take a deep breath and say those words again because, honestly, I can't believe that anyone thought up this crazy thing. Just… WHY?
From WayCoolGadgets, $19.
Pasta Measure
Whatever happened to the good old fashioned measuring with your hand method? Honestly, I just take as much as looks fine to me and then make that. Why do we need this fancy looking plate thingy? We don't.
From Amazon, $20.
