(Part 2) Best products from r/WeWantPlates

Back in the 80's, the kitchen of the restaurant I worked at called them Butt Buddies as they were always in the back pocket of the cook's pants.

However, according to Urban Dictionary (and elsewhere on the net), "Butt Buddy" now means something else... so I wouldn't google it like I did :) I suppose cooks today just call them food scrapers or something unoriginal like that.

Which are probably so small you wouldn’t even notice, also, straws exist.

Not to mention that doesn’t matter at all to most normal people. It’s not a literal trash can, it’s just a little novelty cup that looks like one, probably in theme with the restaurant somehow, and I bet the lid actually closes for taking it to go. If I got served a drink in this I would think “huh, neat” before probably just ignoring it, like it isn’t these or something like them.

Just an FYI: that's not actually newspaper, it's wax paper created specifically for food service use.

In many places, it's against health department regulations to use real newspaper for serving food, so companies have begun making wax paper that looks like newspaper so that places that traditionally used newspaper, like for fish & chips, can continue the same look, but comply with health department regulations.

Good news, it's only $12 on Amazon

I found a mini hatchet that's a bottle opener. It was in Powell's City of Books on the "Portlandia / Oregon gifts" shelf. 😂

Amazon

otherwise known as amber bottles I can buy at my local Sprouts, Natural Food Grocers, or any other place that sells patchouli.
Also available on Amazon if you don't feel like venturing out. https://www.amazon.com/32-Ounce-Kombucha-Growler-Polycone-Phenolic/dp/B0749ZWF1C?ref=ast_p_pc_rc

If anyone is ever interested in a matching set of glasses, these are thick, available in a variety of sizes and colors, stackable, & are indestructible. They have been making them for decades & will probably continue if you ever want to add more. If you buy 6 your 5 grandchildren will each be able to keep one as a memento of their time in your home when you pass. If you are inclined you can use these new glasses to smash your mismatched glasses and jars.

You can set up a price watch & get them for 1$ each. The brand has a few more styles if you don’t like the aesthetic, but these are the most utilitarian by far.

It looks like the base to a bread-baking cloche

It looks like one of these: https://www.amazon.com/Spotty-Metal-Tray-with-Rake/dp/B01CU9JFM2

Like these things:

You put food in while on a plate -> push it down, then add layers. Then push it out and it's supposed to look "cool"

The wood is gross but the paper is actually a deli square printed to look like newspaper

It’s not a repurposed toy, it’s an actual piece of disposable flatware, so I’m okay with it.

My primary concern with all the weirdness we see in this sub is how unsanitary much of it is. By comparison, this is humdrum and safe.

That glass looks like the this one from ikea, which has a stated volume of 12 ounces. That said, the product description for these mason jars say they're an inch shorter than the glasses, but still a pint.

here’s the Amazon link. even the scented stuff only has a very mild scent.

Given that it is sitting upright, I don't think that this is a real light bulb (as they don't have flat ends. I would guess this is a bottle made to look like a light bulb. I would assume the metal part un-screws. Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Tinksky-400ml-Tea-Water-Bottle/dp/B01FDA7C7K

If that is somehow a real light bulb, that's terrifying.

I want that flamingo inner tube, though.

They could have just bought actual chrome plates though https://www.amazon.com/Maro-Megastore-Tableware-Birthday-T234L-4PK/dp/B07F2FFH2V?pf_rd_p=b27c6b9f-10c0-440e-af04-efdeaad05d30&pd_rd_wg=zeO48&pf_rd_r=G5GVSDNF2FE42MA6YV9M&ref_=pd_gw_cr_simh&pd_rd_w=8J43b&pd_rd_r=436b5ae2-204d-4114-824f-f5d457d21a1d

The crispy edges make me think they were made in some kind of iron like this

It was unsettling how I knew exactly where I had seen that before...
