Ever wish you had more help in your kitchen? If the answer is yes, then check into Quirky Inventions. This is a site where you can find some cool and helpful gadgets and inventions to help make cooking and eating easier. The best part, all the stuff is invented by everyday people like the guy next door or the mom charge of the class bake sale.
Quirky is basically a site for inventors. Started by Ben Kaufman in 2009, the site gives inventors a chance to showcase their ideas for only ten dollars an idea (the second is free thanks to a coupon). Other Quirky members (it's free to join) vote on these and also give their input on products through the various processes from color choice to price range. If you have an unique idea, especially for cooking then submit it along with a drawing(or not but it helps) to Quirky.if it gets picked it will not only be sold on the site but also to big stores like Target, Bed, Bath and Beyond and even Williams and Somona.
What I like is wide range of finished products. They have cool kitchen gadgets like The Stem, This is a spritzer that is inserted directly into a lemon or lime and the juice is then misted out. I love this and have used this in making salads. Another fun product is The Slice, an ergonomically designed pizza cutter that creates clean slices without all the mess and cheese strings. Quirky even offers the neat and new Portion, a hybrid of a regular spoon and measuring spoons set that can help with cooking and baking. There are some cool barbecue implements as well that will make any BBQ chef not only hip but also good at cooking and serving those kabobs and steaks.
Go wild with the Quirky Kitchen gadgets. They are not only interesting but fun to use. If you don;t see what you want, then invent it. You never know.It may be the next million dollar idea that foodies will gobble up.
