Can’t decide on which pie to make for dessert? Why not bake ‘em both at the same time with the Split Decision pan?

From the product page:

This ingenious pan includes two inserts for creating either a traditional full size pie, or two halves. Make two sweet halves at once – think apple and blueberry — to add variety to your dessert selection, or make one savory and one sweet. “Lift & Serve” feature enables easy removal of the finished pies without wrecking the crusts.

How does Chuck Norris chop lettuce? He slices it with the calluses that he’s built up over the years karate-chopping his victims. He also uses this method to clear trees and brush in his backyard.

For the rest of us, there’s Gama-Go’s Karate Chopper knife.

The Robostir is the latest in a long line of wacky “As Seen On TV” gadgets, but I have to admit that this one might actually come in handy. It’s a device that sits in your pot and automatically stirs your stirables.

So you’re free to make coffee while the Robostir keeps your oatmeal from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Basically, anything recipe that requires occasional stirring is taken care of hands-free.

Check out the Robostir in action after the break.
