Since returning to the US a few weeks ago, one thing that has struck me more than anything else is the enormous amount of utterly ridiculous products. Case in point here.
This is an instrument designed to open a can that has already been designed to be easy to open!
Other ridiculous products include buckets of margarita mix, a one egg sized frying pan, and a soda can crusher. Edison was right – I don’t know how much perspiration was involved in coming up with these inventions, but I doubt there was a whole lot of inspiration involved. Then again, genius…?
On the other hand, if stores keep stocking these products, people must be buying them. Who are these people, and why do they need 3 quarts of margarita mix?
I like the idea of frying pans in all sizes. One egg is too little for me, though.
