Finally a device that allows straight people to eat bananas
OK, I get an egg slicer, just because they’re actually a pain in the ass to slice by hand. But this? This is ridiculous.
Most kitchen "gadgets" that are effectively an alternative to the classic combination of a knife and cutting board (such as this one) are typically assistive devices for those unable to safely/effectively operate a knife. Even though a dull table knife would generally be more than sufficient to cut a banana, not everybody can so much as properly grip one.
Kids. It's safer than a knife for kids.
Well, most kids.
my kid managed to go full cenobite on himself with an apple slicer, but luckily it was only plastic.
While I agree that assistive devices are necessary, and this could be used as one, I highly doubt that it was invented for that purpose.
Maybe
I suspect that it is for children to use so they don’t have to use a knife. Then again, I don’t know the last time I ever saw a child prepare their own food.
I almost never slice bananas for my kids, I just start the peel and they take it from there. The only time I slice is if I put it on a peanut butter sandwich or something.
Isn't a child just someone who can't safely use a knife?
Just because most children can’t use a knife safely doesn’t mean that anyone who can’t use a knife safely must therefore be a child.
That’s called “association fallacy“.
No, but the person you responded to didn't specify. They just said what group of people would use these. Those who cant safely operate a knife. That includes children. I'm not saying it's made up exclusively of children.
You're mistakingly assuming that because it was made for a sunset that ist not designed for the larger group. It's designed for the subset, which forms part of a larger group. It's still, then, for that group, especially for the subset.
If you can't properly grip a knife, what will you use to eat the slices? Surely just holding the banana is easier, no?
Yeah exactly what would that thing even be used for? Please don’t tell me it’s for a banana.
That right there is on a whole other level of shitposting

"You're holding it wrong."
tries vertically
What if they wanted thick slices of Satan's dick? Either way, they've made a huge mistake by even thinking about eating one of those lmfao
Lol
