After years of struggling with the god awful rubber tipped tongs, tongs where the tips bend outwards and refuse to let you grab anything, or tongs where the hinge mechanism is less reliable than your company’s IT department, I FINALLY came across these stainless steel ones. As a race, humans have sent people to the moon, learned how to send internet through the air, and even learned to separate literal atoms, but until these tongs couldn’t figure out how to make a reliable set of squeezy kitchen bois.

These are by far the sturdiest, most well made things I’ve used. Just buy some, don’t look back.
