10 weirdest and completely unnecessary kitchen utensils: the electric spaghetti plug

To make life as simple and comfortable as possible, hundreds of companies around the world are conducting numerous research, developing and producing new useful devices. Thanks to this, you no longer need to always wash with your hands, worry about maintaining the right temperature in the house and even fuss around the stove for several hours for a regular dinner.

But, not all inventions are so necessary. Today in stores sold a lot of unnecessary and even strange things.

1. E-cookbook

What, besides your wallet, can facilitate this device is still unclear. And yet, its functional features are actively advertised to potential buyers. Book:

• has Internet access (like a TV, laptop, telephone);
• allows you to load your own recipes (which have always been successfully stored in a regular notebook);
• for some reason contains an internal album for photos and applications for playing music and videos.

As a result, this purchase will be more of a stylish accessory., which only takes up space, and will not justify the money spent on it.

2. Slicer

Such a miracle of technology is capable of cut a whole stick of sausage into neat slices in a matter of minutes. However, in everyday life, hardly anyone will need to shred food in such a volume. Therefore, the slicer is more useful for the chefs of a large restaurant than for the hostess in the home kitchen.

3. Electric spaghetti plug

A device that looks more like a toy. Surely the developers were guided just by the opportunity to interest a child who does not want to eat. In any case, any adult will definitely be able to wind pasta on an ordinary fork on their own.

4. Apple peeler

A good example of how simple things can be overcomplicated. Yes, such equipment will really cut off a thin layer of the peel, but at the same time it:

• takes up space in the closet;
• needs regular care and electrical power;
• after use, it takes time to disassemble and wash all parts.

Agree, much it's easier to take a regular knife and spend 1-2 minutes to peel the apple.

5. Tenderiser

An analogue of a hammer for beating meat. Researchers claim that when using this device connective tissues are destroyed much more efficiently. This makes the chops more juicy and tasty.

It may be so, but with the usual hammer it is still more convenient to operate, and it costs less.

6. Hot dog toaster

Comparing it to a regular toaster, there is only one difference: there are holes for buns and sausages. The rest of the device is no different from what we are used to. Meanwhile, the question of the need to store such a whopper in the kitchen only for hot dogs, apparently, is not being considered.

7. Cooker

It would seem that we live in a world where there are already devices such ascow and slow cooker. They do an excellent job of preparing even the most difficult dishes, not to mention the usual porridge.. Why, in this case, "reinvent the wheel" (more precisely, a special cooker) is unknown. Nevertheless, it exists and is even actively sold.

8. Protein and yolk separator

Designed specifically for cleaners. The separator is like a pipette. After you have broken the egg, the yolk is easily separated with this device. By the way, you can still do this with a spoon.

9. Egg cooker

An advertisement for this device claims that it is as easy as shelling pears to boil with it. In fact, using an ordinary saucepan for these purposes, as our mothers and grandmothers did, is not at all difficult. Moreover the whole process takes about the same amount of time, and the egg cooker takes up even more space.

10. Machine for making pasta

Necessary for gourmets who are going to open their own production, or for people who have a huge kitchen, the same wallet and spare time.

And how often do you want to make a dough for your own pasta when you come home from work instead of just throwing the store bought in boiling water?

This is not a complete list of what can make you open your mouth in surprise at the store counter. And the manufacturers are clearly not going to stop! Who knows what the future may hold for us?
