Have your cereal and drink it too

Fresh Traveller by Arian Brekveld for Royalvkb

It’s not uncommon to want your cake and eat it too. For some, this translates to wanting cereal and having it crunchy too. OK, well maybe that’s a stretch, but the spirit of the statement still stands. After all, it’s simply a matter of wanting a nice bowl of crispy cereal swimming in milk. Even if you have to drink it out of a travel mug.

The Fresh Traveller by Arian Brekveld for Royalvkb makes it possible to enjoy crispy cereal and granola with milk, yogurt or whatever you may prefer. (Does anything crispy or crunchy work in orange juice?) Whatever your pleasure, you can now take it with you to enjoy classic combinations whenever, wherever. Of course with a price tag of $49, you may just be better off buying your box of Cap’n Crunch and pint of milk from the corner store.

You light up my drink

electrapour
Your eyes… they are so beautiful. They sparkle in the light. It’s as if all the stars from heaven were poured into your eyes. Wait. That’s just my drink being poured. Umm… you must be from heaven, because you look like an… hey, where you going?

Indeed. The ElectraPour might not help you out with your pick up lines, but it will almost certainly entertain you in darkly lit bars. Fitting snuggly on top of a liquor bottle, the pourer is activated when liquid is poured through it. A red LED illuminates the stream of booze all the way into the glass. Your love life may not improve, and your liver may rebel against you for all the repeated pouring, but for pure entertainment value, this little pourer is sure to light up a few smiles.

Emergency bacon in a can

Tac Bac - Tactical Canned Bacon

You know it isn’t very good for you, but you want it anyways. Not bacon-bacon, rather canned-bacon. Standard bacon must be good for you because, well, it tastes so good–but we already knew that. No, it’s the bacon in a can that draws attention here. Taste tests of similar design have not fared too well. (See this video review of Yoder’s Canned Bacon, for example.) However, the call of the bacon is strong, and as such we must have on hand–at all times–emergency bacon.

Tac Bac – Tactical Canned Bacon serves such a purpose. With a shelf life of over ten years, this emergency ration pack is perfect for those mornings when no other pork product will do. No longer must one endure the morning shuffle to the corner store. If the night before involved lots of drinking, well then, you understand that this is a must have pantry product. Just ignore the taste. And texture. And probably smell. But, hey! It’s bacon!

Leggo of my Lego (cookie)

Lego Rolling Cookie Cutter

Yes, sometimes it is OK to play with your food. Especially when your food comes in Lego form. This Lego Rolling Cookie Cutter imprints the iconic design directly onto a batch of cookie dough, cutting them into 2-inch by 2-inch squares. Why this officially endorsed Lego product opts for squares over bricks is anybody’s guess. It’s criminal, I tells ya.

Banana Split brings bunches of bananas to the countertop

Umbra Banana Split by Jason Nip

Not only do bananas belong in bunches, but they also belong hanging from a tree. Since most of us can’t find the time to tend the banana groves in our backyard, we need to find alternate options for banana bunch hanging. Enter the Umbra Banana Split. A nifty little banana hanger, the design by Jason Nip features styling in white and “mellow yellow” for that all important banana appeal (ahem).
