So you still waste all the time you saved in cooking it to let it cool down, basically no difference time-wise. (Fast forward in time to the present) my little nephew insist in calling a pressure cooker a "bomb." I try to tell him it is not a "bomb" it's just ordinary cookware.

Pressure cookers are necessary though for making stews and chilis. I wouldn't get rid of those. Making rice takes no time at all though. Like FD mentioned earlier just stick to the 2 to 1 formula or 1 to 1 if you buy parboiled rice.

Along with garlic press. I had this dicer thing that's similar to it but I used to use it for dicing tomatoes and onions but it was such a pain in the butt to clean and I ordered it from one of those infomercials. I'm like wtf. This is supposed to be an innovation not require more work. Sod off!

yeah.....no. Bottle openers are still necessary but I just have one just in case. I might need it one day for some Mc Guiver s
hit while you end up dying because you didn't have one and couldn't save your life because of it.

I love those jars of minced garlic. I'm willing to pay extra to have someone do it for me.

I agree. I just opt for microwave bags. I'm lazy at times.
