I got a vertical grill and a reflector toaster for

wedding gifts. They were the 'in' thing to have.

I thought both were great. I had no problem with them.

Having said that - hubby bought me (years ago)

an electric meat slicer. Only a smidge smaller than

the ones they have in the deli. lol

Consigned to the cupboard forever more

I'm looking forward to an electric jug with a built in steam mop in the base.You can sanitise the benchtops while you wait for the water to boil.

hmmm, ok. Next question, why?

Re: Useless Kitchen Items You Own or Have owned In the Past?

*crikey*mate* — Sat, 28 Jun 2014 09:19:29 GMT

why what?

Why? Because we now know that the human digestive system is designed to take all food, in liquid form.:)

What are and why do you need capsules? Do they self seal in the magic bullet? How is it different from a regular blender?

I hate sandwich makers. They smell and taste like rancid butter,

cos no-one ever cleans them properly. Even in cafes
