I’m not much of a cook. I try sometimes, but for the most part I’m just too lazy to be making anything that requires more effort than turning the oven\/microwave\/air fryer on. That said, my frying pan is more or less my best friend in the kitchen, and I use it all the damn time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m a sentimental fool, so the idea of parting with my frying pan after nearly a decade together seems unthinkable. But the old girl is getting on in age; she’s developed a pretty severe tilt which ensures that oil and eggs always pool over to one side, and more than a few permanent battle scars. It’s time to move onward and upward, and the solution to my problems came to me in an unexpectedly helpful YouTube ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I say that because YouTube ads are typically for trash products that I would never even consider buying into. (Especially<\/em> YouTube Premium.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The Always Pan is apparently able to fulfill all of your cooking needs. Or at least, it claims to be able to replace 8 other pieces of cookware. The big upgrade here for me is the non-stick surface. If my frying pan ever had non-stick abilities, they are long, long gone. The thing needs to be coated with a pretty think layer of margarine to keep my eggs from becoming one with the pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the most amazing feature by far is that built-in spoon rest! It’s incredible! I always hate having to find somewhere to sit my utensils while cooking, and now it’s right there<\/em>!! I actually have a standalone spoon rest sitting on my stovetop, but I hate the idea of dirty spoons dripping onto it, so it’s really there more for decoration than anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The downside of The Always Pan is that like any trendy cookware, it’s ridiculously overpriced. I mean, it’s probably also because they aren’t manufactured using child labour, but still. It’s so stupidly expensive that I would absolutely never buy one for myself. The value doesn’t justify the price tag of $200 Canadabux. But I did put one on my wish list to Santy Claus, so we’ll see!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or, I’ll<\/em> see. You probably won’t, since I don’t do Xmas haul articles any more. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
