Solutions to Non-existent Problems: May 2009 Archives

Getting fingers messy while eating wings or ribs can technically be called a problem. However, I'm pretty confident that all of society understands and accepts that fingers are going to get dirty when eating certain foods. Therefore, it should not necessarily be seen as an actual problem. Besides, most places give you a nice little wet wipe to clean your hands to quickly eliminate the mess. (There is a Vat19 employee that actually collects such wipes. No, it isn't me.)

Trongs are talon-like plastic things that go on three of your fingers, protecting them from getting messy while eating finger foods. Who the heck wants to eat food with such nonsense? It's weird and looks ridiculous.

I never considered ice getting to my mouth and lips while drinking a huge problem. It certainly is not such a big issue that I'd go buy some plastic spiderweb looking things and put them inside of my glass. Drinking out of a glass isn't that difficult, right?

You can find these things at Home Marketplace for $8.99 for a set of 4, although I doubt you'll have 3 friends or relatives that also have difficulty drinking beverages with ice in them. You want to know an ice-free beverage solution that works and won't make you look like an idiot? The Kufra Pitcher with Ice Tube Insert.
