Trongs keep hands clean even eating barbecue ribs

by Ally in Miscellaneous Gadgets

Everyone has that messy finger food that they adore, yet get annoyed over the mess.  Usually you just suck it up when you’re dying for the food and make a mess.  However, having a cellphone, if you get a phone call while you’re eating your barbecued ribs you can’t answer it.  You could attempt to wipe off your hands quickly and brave placing any grease on your beloved cellphone.  Yet there will still be a residue leftover.  Well now someone has created an item to solve the issue.

Trongs are designed for finger food to make sure that your hands never get too messy.  Just slip your fingers into the little claw-like pieces and you can eat without the mess on your hands.  I’m really a little torn on this product, part of me thinks one should just deal with it and make a mess.  Yet, the idea of not having greasy hands is such a refreshing thought that I can’t help but like these.  The extra nice thing is these are dishwasher safe and incredibly cheap.  You can purchase a pack of six pairs for $4.99.  These can also be purchased in bulk.

Makes sense…..nobody needs to use corn cob holders either but we all use them…..very creative in my opinion.

I’ve used trongs many times, and I think they are awesome. The fact that I can go out for wings, and do something else (take a drink, answer a phone call, or shake someone’s hand without mess is simply ideal. I know some people “like” getting their hands dirty. Try these. You won’t miss going through 100 napkins. The ad says it true: they are cheap! I bought a few pairs, and I leave some at home, and even a pack in the car. And they were a cool stocking stuffer gift for the guys at Christmas. Buy a set; they’re worth it!

I bought a package of Trongs, they are Great! I would say the best thing is that kids love to use them which helps because they don’t create as much of a mess. I would definitely recommend this product to a friend. Its simple and easy to use.
