    I love how they're trying to rebrand a garlic press, that's existed for like 70 years as a designed and patented idea. But as an instrument is a very simple lever press which is an ~18th century invention.

      any real chef or home cooking enthusiast typically smashes a clove with the flat of the blade ideally, though that part isn't necessary, then dices or minces with a regular ol chef knife. Even in huge restaurant quantities not only do I have much more precision and control over the quality of the final product, I'm typically a good deal faster, work in a kitchen full time for 5, 10+ years and it's almost impossible not to pick up decent nice skills, same with cooking for yourself and/or others at home regularly for years with any real degree of enthusiasm. Rarely are any of those kitchen gadgets efficient in any form unless you just lack basic kitchen skills, which is why among people and places where food is prepared for a living, you're rarely gonna find these beyond fast food level, with a smattering of the extra bullshit corporate joints like Applebee's and Buffalo Wild Wings. But they also use specially designed microwaves where it's nuked from 4 seperate microwave emitters in various interior walls/panels instead of one like most home ones, so they can guarantee it only takes a minute max to ass blast those "premium" dishes into a steaming pile of...culinary delight. soo :p

    That slushy cup thing actually used to be a pretty popular “As Seen On TV” product! I actually got one in my kitchen somewhere that I bought in like 2014. I used it like twice though because I don’t have space to permanently store it in my freezer and when I realise I want a slushy I want it then and not in 8 hours when it’s had time to freeze. It was a pretty cool concept though.

A bit janky, but works very well, and the process was super easy. (I guess this is my 5 minute craft lol.)

    As an electrical engineer, that "power saving" device is a super common scam, and it is loosely rooted in something real (but it 100% doesn't work in this implementation). Basically some of AC electricity is consumed as "reactive power", this is useless power that isn't doing anything, wasted due to either capacitive or inductive elements in all the circuits. Reactive power can be reduced to 0 by equalizing the number of inductive and capacitive components in the circuit, wasting less power. So these devices pretend to achieve that by whacking a capacitor into the circuit and calling it a day. Nevermind that you have equal chance of making the reactive power worse since you don't know if it's inductive or capacitive. The real kicker? Domestic energy suppliers don't charge for reactive power. At all. This only matters for industrial hookups.

    those grocery bags are really common in Europe, at least where I'm from (the Netherlands, but I've also seen them in Germany). Because plastic bags aren't being sold here anymore and paper bags never really were a thing, it became kind of an alternative and you can get them in so many stores now. they're so incredibly handy!

    As an electrical engineer, the "power" one makes me angry. He's acting like current is some mystical thing he's harnessing. *Current forms to it's load*, it's not something the supply can control. If you want less power draw, you need to disconnect things using power in your house. Adding some nonsense in-between isn't going to magically change the load needs of your blender.
