ITT: Uni-taskers you shamelessly use.

>>7778407
I have a similar device that cores the apple and cuts it into wedges at the same time. It's just the superior way to process apples.
>>
>>7778407
a pizza slicer maybe?

i dont really use anything like that, maybe a garlic press if im truly lazy that day, which i dont think i ever am
>>
>>7778412
yeah, I've seen that before, but sometimes i just want to eat an apple in my hand, without having to worry about a bunch of little slices getting apple juice everywhere
>>
>>7778481
Why not just eat the core?
>>
>>7778407
Garlic press. I use it all the fucking time. Can't remember I actually chopped garlic.

I also have a pizza slicer but I only use it to cut microwaved quesadillas.

I kind of want to buy an egg slicer...

Because you're clearly taking things to an extreme. An oven can warm foods. It can bake them. It can roast them. And most of them can also broil food (Aka "under the grill" for the UKfags out there).

Obligatory.

It is. I got to try one at a tradeshow a few weeks back and the tortillas are maybe the size of the palm of an average person. Like 85mm/3.3 inches. REALLY small. Good for dipping with stuff maybe? I don't eat tortillas much so I can't say. But it's just not worthwhile. Way too expensive for what it is, and what it's trying to do. Neat idea but you can literally do what it does with an ezbake oven. It basically shoots the ball of dough up, the dough lands on a small press, it gets pressed into the circular shape and its spat out in the drawer.

What would you do with an oven besides heating stuff? "Unitasker" is a meme, because everything is one.

>>7783209
A refrigerator is the worst unitasker. It performs only one task, but costs several hundred dollars and takes up a ton of space.
>>
>>7783209
>because everything is one.

Only when you choose to apply a silly definition such as you are doing. If everything is a unitasker per your definition, doesn't that suggest to you that perhaps your definition ought to be changed?

For example, an oven/range has many uses:
-frying, boiling, baking, sauteing, roasting, broiling, etc. And all of those things can be applied to many different types of food.

>>7783222
Mine does several things:
-keeps food refrigerated
-keeps other food frozen
