Ok, so when was the last time that you really had fun while you were cooking? Hmm? Were you about 12 or younger? That seems to be the time when it was exciting to create new delicacies, usually consisting of things like sugary cereal and chocolate syrup. Remember that time you learned how to make Orange Julius and egg white omelets in home economics class? You were so proud of the way you separated those egg whites without getting shell pieces in the bowl. Ah, those were the days. Now it’s just all cooking for convenience and getting something edible on the table each night for dinner. You know, it doesn’t have to be that way. No, you can have fun again, and I’m going to tell you how.
All you need to make mundane cooking fun again is your good friend, the Alli-Grator (Perpetual Kid, $12.99). This guy is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. If you don’t get a kick out of this, then you are clearly dead, which is all the more frightening because that means you’re a zombie. We’ll talk more about how to get rid of humorless zombies at another time. Back to this amazing kitchen accessory – I mean, seriously, how awesome is this? Jaws closed, the Alli-Grator looks just like an alligator with its chompers on full display. But open it up, and you have a fully functional grater with stainless steel cutters. The alligator’s face turns into a useful sturdy handle, which you’re sure to appreciate if you’ve ever had to grate a block of cheese. Add to that the fact that the whole shebang is dishwasher safe, and I think you’ve got yourself a stellar addition to your kitchen tools collection.
I mean, who wouldn’t want to help out with dinner when they could have the opportunity to handle a quality apparatus such as this? As far as I’m concerned, the biggest problem you’re going to have is figuring out how to incorporate it into your dinner prep every night. Let’s see…tacos with grated cheddar on Monday, pizza with shredded mozzarella on Tuesday, Chinese stir fry with a hint of fresh ginger on Wednesday, lemon chicken topped with lemon zest on Thursday, horseradished kielbasa and pierogies on Friday…
I think we got it covered. See you later, Alli-Grator.
