Da Gennaro Pizza Oven – Cook pizza on your countertop

Da Gennaro Pizza Oven
Pizza is one of my favorite foods…right after avocados.

Over the past few years I’ve really started liking homemade pizza more and more…though I have to say, it doesn’t hurt to have a wife who’s an amazing cook. But regardless, I really have enjoyed making my own pizza lately.

The Da Gennaro Pizza Oven lets you whip up pizzas like you were Papa John himself…right in the comfort of your home. Supposedly it will cook just about anything else that would work in a “wood burning stove”…which I assume to be pretty much anything.

OXO Corn Slitter – Keep that corn out of your teeth

OXO Corn Slitter
Corn is probably one of my favorite vegetables. Unfortunately I’m really not a huge fan of corn on the cob. No matter what you just end up getting corn stuck in your teeth and getting corn juice squirted in your face the whole time you’re trying to eat it.

But the nice thing about corn on the cob is that it’s usually significantly tastier than the stuff you get in a can. So, to get the best of both worlds, check out the OXO Corn Slitter!

Just use the gadget to strip away the corn kernals before you cook them and then you’ll have the tastiness of fresh corn without having to pick it out of your teeth for hours afterwards!


Tempo Digital Trash Can

Tempo Storage

Tempo, currently just a figment of imagination, is a snazzy new way to handle both file storage and the issue of accidentally deleting files.

When you delete a file, it’s automatically transferred to Tempo so you have an ongoing backup of your trashed files. An example of use would be that you accidentally delete a document but do not realize it for a couple of weeks. Good thing you’ve got your Tempo. Just check it for deleted files and chances are it’s there.

No word yet on if this will ever go in to production but it’s certainly a cool idea.

Sanitize that huge loaf of meat

CulinaryPrep Food Sanitizer Over the past year or so I’ve become increasingly grossed out by large slabs of meat. Especially at a restaurant when they bring out said slab of meat and the outside is nice and brown but you cut in to it and it’s practically still mooing. Blah.

Well now with the lovely CulinaryPrep food sanitizer you can practically eat the meat raw as it is so kind to help “sanitize” your food.

Supposedly it removes up to 99.5% of all food borne bacteria and germs. The “up to” part is what makes me a tad uncomfortable…meaning it only might remove all the nasties from your meat. Or it might not.

The Culinary Prep will set you back about $400. I don’t plan on putting a slab of meat in a little kitchen gadget to “clean” it any time soon.

Hot liquid indicator lets you know when to sip lightly

Smart Lid System People get pretty trigger-happy when it comes to suing companies for their own clumsiness and spilling hot beverages on their laps. Now Smart Lid Systems has created a nifty little “gadget” of sorts that make it obvious when the drink is hot.

Just pour in the hot beverage (coffee, hot chocolate, hot tea, etc), snap on the lid, and immediately see the color change from a dull brown to a bright red color.

The rim of the lid even stays brown to work as an indicator of if you have the lid fully attached. Genius!

The lid has multiple patents and has won a few different food related awards for their product.

Hopefully in the next couple of years we’ll see this technology becoming more common!
