Gadgets of the future

[Molly53]

Some of these are so entirely cool!

It’s the future, say around the year 2015, and in this new-age we no longer believe in standard forms. Like a toaster need not be a rectangular box, it may as well be a Halo! A Super-flexible Toaster which is a sheet of heating element; blanketing the bread and making crisp toasts! Not fussy about space, you can fold it into half or roll it into wrap and stow it till next breakfast. Easy baby!

It is a challenge to properly clean the wires of a typical balloon whisk. Thick mixtures can get stuck to the inner side of the wires, proving difficult to wipe off. Many users just rinse their whisk with water, which is not the most hygienic cleaning solution. Storing the bulbous whisk can generate further dilemmas; other kitchen implements can easily become tangled with the whisk wires.

Divisible is a balloon whisk that can be disassembled for easy cleaning and efficient storage. The handle splits into two, unfurling the stainless steel wires so they can be thoroughly wiped and cleaned. The male and female parts of the interlocking handle are held together by magnets.

You might not think you need a heating spoon, but trust us, you do. This spoon comes in handy when your morning cup of coffee cools to that disagreeable room temperature. And it's also handy for cooking when you don't want to use the stove top for a small task -- especially if you don't have a microwave.

Wow Molly!
You've definitely got this gadget junkie's attention. DH is a total toaster junkie and I would love nothing more than to have that flat folding toaster that didn't take up my whole counter top.
Not to mention the portable toaster, the warming spoon, and my personal favorite... the food-weighing cutting board. Genius!

OMG Molly, boy do you have my attention. Just don't know which one I like the best but that auto stirring tool, the heating spoon and the flat toaster have to be at the top.. Now, I'll have to keep watching for when they hit the stands. I'll never have enough gadgets if they keep up this way

I have the measuring cup and have had for a couple of years. Mine is a 4 or 6 cup one, but I have to admit it is one of those things I bought and have never used.
