    Eh… I have one and use it.

    What are you monsters using, a spoon?! /s

    FWIW I also have a butter knife, a saucer, 3 graters… I mean nobody needs any of that, you can survive with knives and forks but if you do cook frequently, good tools help IMHO.

    I’m a ~4yr amateur apiarist (US based, but not one of the dumb ones… depending). These are actually great for serving our raw honey. It pours off perfectly if you spin it.

    I have used it but I don’t have one since I usually crystalise all my honey anyway. Mostly just put it in tea and crystalised is so much easier.

    I own one, but mostly because I had a phase of getting into speciality honey and was eating honey every day during that time. It’s really the optimal tool for the job of getting honey out of a jar and onto your toast while also being easy to clean.

    Also, please for the love of God stop buying shitty honey that comes in a bear shaped jar. Go to your local farmers market and pay what you think is way too much money for locally produced honey. Honey where quality really matters and a little bit of really good honey is better than a lot of cheap honey.

      Honey Dipper.

      As long as you spin it (along the axis of the handle), the honey stays on the stick and doesn’t drip all over everything. When you stop spinning, it drips all over your food.

      It’s a niche tool but 11/10 at its one job.
