    Remy The Rat Isn’t Real, So Buy These 28 Kitchen Gadgets That Will Help Instead

    Until we can train rodents to make our food, we must fend for ourselves.

    1. An automatic pan stirrer since no small animals are gonna pick up the slack if you walk away from your pan.

    2. An egg cooker that'll make hard-boiled eggs so good, even Anton Ego would approve.

    3. A rice cooker so you can set it and forget it, no Little Chef needed.

    4. A breakfast sandwich maker that cooks every part of the sandwich at once and then neatly stacks them together. Voila! And no little rat paws touched any part of your meal.

    5. A garlic chopper perfect for anyone who's more of an Alfredo Linguini than an Auguste Gusteau when it comes to prep work.

    6. A beloved 7-in-1 pressure cooker sure to replace at least three of your bulky kitchen gadgets (and one fictional rat chef).

    7. A retro diner-style 3-in-1 breakfast station, because that breakfast scene from Ratatouille is really cute, but sadly not something we could have experience IRL. This has a griddle, coffee pot, and toaster oven so your breakfast battle station is all in one place.

    8. And not to keep harping on the cutest breakfast scene in movie history, but here is a mold you can just throw in your Instant Pot for easy eggs!

    9. An Aerogarden countertop garden for a foolproof way to grow fresh herbs at home. If Remy was here, he'd want you to use more basil.

    10. A rotating oven for heating your food evenly and keeping your precious pizza visible at all times, lest a rodent try to sneak a bite.

    11. A cute microwave helper so you can make s'mores in the microwave. Is this cuter than Remy? No. But is it real? Yes.

    12. An electric peeler — not as cute as watching a rodent get to work with a mini peeler, but way more efficient.

    13. An ice cream sandwich maker for pristine sweet treats worthy of a dessert counter in Paris.

    14. A pack of toaster bags so you can get your grilled cheese fix without waiting around to flip your sandwich in a pan. Spatulas are too heavy for lil' rat paws anyway.

    15. A veggie chopper to make quick work of your prep work. I personally, would not want to hold a sharp object while a rodent controlled my movements, so this seems like the next best option.

    16. A sushi kit so you can whip up maki like a pro. Auguste Gusteau was right — anyone can cook (or assemble maki)!

    17. A life-changing gadget that converts your boring frozen fruit into — hello — soft serve "nice cream." Ice cream for breakfast? There have been crazier ideas before (like a rat becoming a famous Parisian chef).

    18. A yogurt maker to cut down on grocery store costs and impress all your guests with Paris café-level goodness.

    19. A salsa maker that chops ingredients super fast so you can enjoy salsas and guacamole with your roommates (sadly none of which are talking rodents).

    20. A hot dog maker so you can get perfectly toasted dogs and buns. Hot dogs, you know, the famous French delicacy.

    21. A sous vide precision cooker to create meals worthy of a spot on Gusteau's menu.

    22. An immersion blender kit so you can blend your hollandaise sauce right in the pan and save yourself the pain of having to wash out a blender. You don't have a tiny sous chef to help clean, after all.

    23. Oooor a Ninja Foodi personal blender that's small but effective (like Remy!). This thing can obliterate tough ingredients like ice, nuts, and frozen fruit, making it a must-have in every kitchen.

    24. A compact air fryer you can turn to when you want crispy food that hasn't been totally soaked in oil or covered in rat fur.

    25. A family cookbook with room for all your best meals so you can pass down your legendary ratatouille recipe to future generations.

    26. A weekly meal planner pad with room to plan meals, a perforated shopping list section, and a magnet. There's no rat around to tell you what to buy so keep this on the fridge and tear off your shopping list when it's time to hit the grocery store.

    27. A mini griddle ready to whip up eggs, pancakes, and other goodies — thanks, Little Chef 2!

    28. And a microwave popcorn maker that melts butter as the kernels pop so you can have evenly coated popcorn for movie night. I know what I'm watching tonight!

    Bon appetit!
