    Oh you are pushing an open door here Karen. Kitchen gadgets drive me insane! As far as I am concerned, the only necessary kitchen "gadget" is a sharp knife.

    My mother is an absolute sucker for advertising. She watches an advert for some useless junk and thinks she has to have it! She uses it once then tries to palm it off on me because she has just discovered it serves no purpose. Drives me insane.

    In Defense of SOME Kitchen Gadgets

    I would never buy something off the T.V. or an unsolicited email but...I have some gadgets that I like - the ones that come to mind all seem to have to do with corn.

    For example....I have a devise for taking the kernels off the cob. I could use a knife but I find I cut myself less and make less of a mess using this gadget.

    A non-corn is a garlic peeler (RIP) I loved my garlic peeler. It peeled perfectly every time! Sadly, it was plastic and I have now broken two of them.

    Perhaps I am just a less skilled person in the kitchen and therefore need my toys!

    I have seen your fabulous corn tool and it is not a gadget, it is a useful tool!

    So perhaps my corn tool could be moved from pointless?

    Does that adjust to the width of each ear? Just curious!
