Filed under “What took so long?” someone finally made a salad boat. But The Row Boat Salad Bowl didn’t stop with just a vessel to hold your greens — but also included mini oars as your salad servers. Row up some romaine or mixed greens for your guests, and you’ll have a conversation piece until the entrees arrive.

I am not quite sure under what circumstances one might need a set of Witches’ Kitchen Tools, but nonetheless they exist. Hand-carved from sustainably-farmed mahogany, the set includes a mixing spoon, a spork-like utensil, and a hand for some reason. All for properly maintaining your witches’ brew, and adding your bat tail, eye of newt, or whatever other crazy shit you’re into. We don’t judge.
In yet another attempt to discourage the meat eater, Swiss collective Postfossil created a collection of housewares called “Trattoria Utopia“. Recently on display at the Milan furniture fair, part of the series includes a set of useless silverware consisting of round-tined forks and a dull unpolished knife — neither of which appears capable of penetrating warm butter, much less a NY strip.
And not unlike PETA’s less than subtle attempts to piss on the carnivore’s campfire, the impractical utensils were created merely as an attempt to discourage and provoke — not necessarily to be mass-produced and sold at Crate & Barrel.
