Let’s be real for a moment ladies and gents: nowadays, we have less time to get things done and more pressure to “be green!” and save the Earth (but honestly, do any of us have the slightest clue how?). Well, we’ve got some good news for you: now at House of Knives is the THAT! line. The company has come up with some really neat gadgets that’ll make your life easier and greener—saving you time and a portion of the planet.
SpreadTHAT!
The SpreadTHAT! is a fantastic new butterknife that melts butter as you spread it. As you hold the knife, you transfer your own body heat to the blade which melts your butter, Nutella, coconut oil… the list goes on and on (and who’s hungry now?). Maybe you keep your butter in the fridge so it’s always too hard to spread. Maybe you just really love the taste of melted butter (Julia Child, we salute you), but you don’t have a quick solution other than completely ruining it in the microwave. Well, now you have a remedy to all your butter-related problems. In addition to being energy-efficient and completely eco-friendly, the SpreadTHAT! is also dishwasher safe. Just add body heat and spread away! (Sorry Dracula, this one isn’t for you).
ScoopTHAT!
‘Tis the season for ice cream and sorbet! We would be remiss if we didn’t offer you the coolest way to serve up cold treats to family and friends. The ScoopTHAT! ice cream scooper not only gives you perfect scoops of cold, sugary goodness, but it eliminates that second spoon (and sometimes third spoon) needed to scrape out ice cream stuck to your old scoop. Teflon-coated and boasting unique Thermo-ring edges, the ScoopTHAT! ever so slightly melts your cold treats so they easily slide out and into your bowl. Keeping with the tradition of green technology, the Thermo-ring gets its heating power from biodegradable liquid within the scooper’s handle. This liquid transfers heat to the edges of the scooper, just barely melting your cold treats, so you can enjoy summer refreshment with no hassle or hold up.
ThawTHAT!
Next up is the ThawTHAT! and we could swear this thing is made of magic. The ThawTHAT! is a thawing board that defrosts your freezer-goods up to four times faster than traditional thawing methods. This board works without electricity, drawing on the same heating technology as the ScoopTHAT! by using a self-heating biodegradable liquid inside. The benefits of the ThawTHAT! are plentiful. Because it defrosts without electricity, the loss of food’s nutrients and flavour is minimized, so you’ll get all the good stuff from your food that you want to be getting. The board itself is made with food-grade aluminum so you’ll never have to worry about any surprise health-concerns. And, in addition to being energy-efficient, you’ll save massive amounts of time for those days when you needed to start dinner 20 minutes earlier.
SipTHAT!
Gather ‘round all ye hot-beverage drinkers—the SipTHAT! is about to change your world. This mug isn’t just any old travel mug, it’s a mug that allows you to enjoy your just-about-boiling drink faster, and keep it at a drinkable temperature for longer throughout your day. As soon as you pour your drink into the SipTHAT!, it absorbs excess heat from your beverage, getting it to a cool enough temperature to drink. Then, it gradually releases heat back into your drink, keeping a stable temperature, so you can indulge in your all-consuming coffee or tea addiction without a time limit. Wave goodbye to reheating drinks in the microwave, and embrace your mug-saviour.
