I’m skeptical of kitchen gadgets in general, but this one seems genuinely useful, at least if you’re a frequent consumer of butter. Most of us store butter in a butter dish, and cut slices off of it with a knife. If you refrigerate your butter (a Northeastern America thing? I recently learned of Midwestern and Southern households that leave it out all day and night), cutting it yields inconsistent results. Enter the Butter Twist, which is both the storage vessel and the means of precise dispensing:
The Butter Twist has been successfully Kickstarted and should start shipping later this year.
