While Fusion Brands is not a well known cooking brand, at Foodstruments we have reviewed the Poachpods and Fingertongs that come from this small innovative company. Both silicone products had worked very well in the kitchen and they were delightful to test. However, there is a third Fusion Brands gadget that has now been tested out by Foodstruments and that is the Love Handle. The Love Handle is a silicone handle that fits over the existing handle of a pan so that it can be gripped easier and safer while offering a built-in utensil rest.

Paper shavings on the counter. A series of hit and miss spots located on top of the can. Places where the can should have fit into the grove but somehow could not manage. Finally, getting the can open and then attempting to get it out/off with the lovely assistance of a fork or other sharp object. Opening a can of something can be the biggest pain in the world if you do not have a good can opener. I have reviewed an Oxo GoodGrips Can Opener that worked just lovely, but I think the Fissler Magic Smooth-Edge Can Opener might just be a little bit better.

Everyone enjoys those summer burgers. Whether they are made of meat or vegetables, it can be a challenge getting them to be nice and perfectly rounded like those at a restaurant. I know that I hate it when all my patties end up being different sizes and I never know what one will be done when. With patties that are all the same size, this is not a problem. Well, now you can make hamburger patties round and flat out of whatever you choose to use for ingredients. The Cuisinart Hamburger Patty Maker Set is a 10-piece set that includes the patty maker as well as four holders with lids.

Are you looking for a quick way to get a nice, evenly sliced bagel? Perhaps it is early in the morning and you need to get ready for work but do not have time to slice a bagel? Or perhaps you are using the Back to Basics Egg/Muffin Toaster and would like your meat and egg to be on a bagel? The Larien Bagel Guillotine is able to fulfill these tasks and makes slicing a bagel quick, safe, and easy.

Do you have small children who do not do well with corn on the cob? Do you or your kids have braces? Are you getting sick of cutting the corn off the cob and not getting a clean cut? Well, with the Kuhn Rikon Corn Zipper, you can "zip" off rows of corn individually and get each kernel instead of whatever the knife gets. Personally, I think this corn zipper was somewhat marginal but everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion.

I love having fresh fruit on hand. The common fruits I usually have for my household are apples and oranges, which are always nice, but what I really enjoy are fruits that are uncommon here in Michigan. One of my personal favorites is mango. While mangoes are delicious, they are a pain to try to cut around that mango core. It almost makes it not even worth eating the mango. However, the OXO Good Grips Mango Splitter will help you to enjoy such delicious fruit faster and easier than you ever expected.
