A Place To Put The Pits

Pittoon Platter

When serving olives or cherries, the resulting pits can look a little too appetizing for some to pass up. While it may always be amusing to catch somebody about to try one of the fancy ‘nuts’, ultimately they are a party favor best kept out of sight.

The Pittoon Platter keeps gullible guests from being the butt of jokes as they attempt to sample the slowly growing pile of pits. The serving platter comes complete with a separate bowl designed specifically to hide discarded pits. Clearly labeled “PITS”, everyone will thankfully know what not to eat on the tray.

Fresh Mill Herb Storage and Mill

Fresh herbs, while delicious, are often quite a hassle to deal with: at the store they can be expensive, while growing your own can be tricky. However, cooking just wouldn’t be the same without them. So, we suffer the price tag or attempt to grow a green thumb, and when our efforts are rewarded with fresh herbs, two new issues arrive: storage and use.

The Fresh Mill Herb Storage and Mill solves two aspects of herb usage at once. The kitchen gadget stores herbs directly in the colorful little container, while the integrated mill makes adding herbs to dishes as easy as opening up the freezer. Just grab and twist, and stored herbs quickly become delectable ingredients. The innovative design conquers two of the more common issues regarding herb usage, and makes those fresh herbs in the store seem a lot more economical.

With stainless-steel blades and a unique threaded rod, the 3-cup capacity cutting tool makes quick work of a pile of potatoes. Capable of making slices or a continuous spiral of potatoes or yams, the kitchen gadget makes it easy to prep distinctive creations ready to drop in the deep fryer. And as the cutter is top-rack dishwasher-safe, even the old excuse of not wanting to do the dishes can’t be used to promote a trip to the drive-thru.
