Sword Cheese Grater is Perfect for Marcus Aurelius Cheficus

We all need to grate cheese, at least those normal among us do. I say normal because only an insane person doesn’t need nachos in their lives every now and again. You could grate your cheese with a normal boxy grater liek your grandma did, or you could get an awesome cheese grater.

This one is shaped like a Roman sword and has a hilt for a handle. It looks to grate up cheese in a fine pattern, but it all melts the same.

The fine grate mens it’s probably meant for parmesan and the like, but I’d totally grate cheddar for nachos. It’s not like any kitchen enemies could stand before the might of this grater and question your recipe prowess. Are you not entertained?

Cheesy Grin Bread Cutter Makes Happy Little Sandwiches

Kids like food shaped like stuff. I’m rather famous around my house for making pancakes that are shaped like butts. Everyone likes to eat food shaped like something. Enter the Cheesy Grin Bread Cutter.

The Hot Glue Gun Is A Thing That Exists

Because we’re definitely too healthy, physically, as a nation, it’s clearly time to make it easier to put cheese on everything. The Fondoodler is a device whose only purpose is to melt cheese and extrude it over anything you want. The name comes from a combination of Fondue and Doodle, because you’ll be doodling with your melted cheese (did you know that ‘Fondue’ means ‘melted’ in French?). You can use it to decorate your dishes, caulk your bathtub, make 3D cheese structures or squirt it straight into your face. Beware: hot cheese is hot. It works with just about any type of cheese that melts, from processed crap to fancy aged goudas.

It’s $25.

Eva Solo Grating Bucket Collects Shredded Food Inside

You can buy all kinds of graters, but most of them require you to grate your cheese directly over your meal like some barbarian. The Eva Solo Grating Bucket is a more elegant solution. It collects the shreds inside as you grate, allowing you to dispense them appropriately later.

Cheese, carrots, whatever. The shreds are collected within for easily sprinkling on top of your favorite dishes. Like any grater, this one will shred a variety of foodstuffs, like cheese, chocolate, carrots and even cold butter. No more aiming at your dish from above and making a mess as it all falls down. This is an elegant grater for a more civilized age.

The design could not be simpler. The Eva Solo Grating Bucket is, basically just a stainless steel cup with grating blades on its sides. It measures 8.3 inches tall so it holds enough to be truly useful. It’s available from Amazon for $49.50(USD).

DIY Cheese Ball Machine Gun: I’ll Give You a Snack You Won’t Believe

One of YouTube’s star makers NightHawkInLight made a gun that fires cheese balls using an electric leaf blower, several PVC pipes and a large cheese ball container.

It’s a fairly simple toy, but building it isn’t as straightforward as you might think. You have to insert a small wedge or ramp inside the pipe, right after the leaf blower’s mouth and just before the T-section that connects the cheese ball container to the rest of the pipe. The ramp will prevent the powerful blast of air from going up to the container and make it easier to suck the cheese balls out.

I love how YouTuber Christopher Perry dropped by the video’s comments to say they’ve been searching for years for a guide on making this exact same toy. Some people just have their goals sorted out.
