    The butter gadget would have been easier to set up if you started with a stick of chilled butter! It would be the perfect size and not fall over or melt as easily.
    Edit: Didn’t mean to cause discourse over sticks of butter haha! I imagine that, even in brick form, it would be fairly easy to cut a piece of adequate size if the block was chilled beforehand. It’s interesting to learn about different methods of butter storage, though!

    For the shaped eggs, the clear/white lid is supposed to be put on after the microwave step, to help push the egg shapes down. Just FYI for all! ☺️

      Was just about to say that ahahaha we have one of them over here. Egg needs to be cooked first then pushed down so you don't make holes in your egg.

    I think the egg shaper needs a little less egg in it so when the egg expands in the microwave it don't ruin the mold.
    The Potato crisp grinder is my number 1 gadget by far, now you can make your own furikake (rice topper) by adding some seaweed and other flavour of crisp too!
    The bear rice mold might come out more clean if we use a little bit of sesame oil to coat the inside?
    That ice bowl is nice wish they had one for whisky tumbler.

    As something of a kitchen gadget fanatic, some of these drive me nuts. The potato chip grinder, for instance, can be done even easier with your own hands. And that butter dispenser strikes me as a solution in search of a problem that doesn't really exist.
    The ice dish mold is perhaps the most versatile one of the bunch. Imagine using your favorite flavor of yogurt or maybe a refreshing fruit juice instead of water. The possibilities are endless. ♥

    I chilled the butter till it was rock solid before putting it in the gadget and it worked amazingly well so I’d say it’s really useful esp on hot toast ^^ the crumbs sometimes stick on the butter tho so I do have to scrape it off afterwards to prevent spoilage

    The butter one would be good for the butter we get in the states. Already the right size formed for you! Like the Ice bowel gadget as well.

    The Chip Crusher is cool. Can imagine, you can also it for cornflakes, pretzels, tortilla chips...

    it's like walking through your local "As Seen On TV" store at your local mall. Or MY kitchen after my wife's stayed awake one Friday night and bought out the HSN. And the musubi maker (Spam omelet sushi) looks like something I would have used after a night drinking back in the 70's. Looks better than fried Spam and chicken noodle soup.
