1. A color-coded Cuisinart knife set to help amateur and expert chefs alike avoid cross-contamination and always reach for the right blade, so your meal prep will be a cut above the rest.
The set has over 3,500 positive reviews and includes a chef's knife, paring knife, bread knife, slicing knife, utility knife, and santoku knife.
Promising review: "This is my best buy of the month, and best knife buy of the year. Yeah, I've had sharper, better quality knives in the past, but for hundreds of dollars more. For basic kitchen use, this is the set to buy. I like that they're colorful, because I've already been able to familiarize myself with which knife is which color and what I need to use them for. I haven't had to sharpen them yet and I've been using them pretty steadily for about a month. The blade cases they come with are extremely handy. I like that I don't have to use a knife block. These fit nicely in my drawer. At this price, they are worth every penny. I wouldn't have a problem spending $40-$50 for these knives." —GWP

2. A hand-sized dish squeegee so clever and cheap, you're honestly gonna be mad at yourself for all of the times you actually touched icky, wet food that was left on your plate (or wasted paper towels on countertop spills).
It's BPA-free and dishwasher safe! Plus, one side is curved so it works on bowls as well as plates. I have this and particularly like it for scraping off things that get stuck to the side of a pot after boiling.
Promising review: "This product is AMAZING. We live in a studio apartment, with a small kitchenette. Our sink likes to spray everywhere, and we don't have a garbage disposal. This product is not only is fantastic at scraping food off of our plates (so it doesn't go down the drain), but it helps to squeegee the countertop when water has sprayed everywhere!!" —Elizabeth

3. Natural, cleansing, and odor-eliminating Bottle Bright tablets to make one of your least favorite chores — cleaning out your gross water bottle or travel mug — unbelievably easy, not to mention eliminate coffee and tea stains in there you thought were permanent.
They've got over 3,000 5-star reviews, and several reviewers also recommend this for stainless steel coffee pots! All you have to do is fill your bottle with warm water, drop a single tablet in, and let it fizz the gunk away. The tablet dissolves completely, so once you dump out the water, you can use your bottle again right away! Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on Bottle Bright.
Promising review: "Can I give Bottle Bright 10 stars? This is a MIRACLE product. I saw it on Shark Tank last week and was really surprised that Lori was the only one that made them an offer (the other Sharks must not use Contigo travel mugs). I immediately ordered it to try and save my Contigo mug that I thought was too far gone. One 10 minute go-round with this product in warm water cleaned the dark brown layer of crud off the bottom of the mug, revealing perfect, shiny, good-as-new stainless steel underneath! I'd tried everything to get that off, but the shape of the bottle made it nearly impossible to scrub. With this product, it rinsed right off like it was nothing. I decided to try one more tablet with hot water and leave it overnight to get the stains off the sides of the bottle. This morning when I rinsed it out, I was absolutely blown away by how perfect it looks. I almost didn't want to put more coffee in it! Also, as the product was sitting and doing its thing in the water, there was no odor whatsoever, and there is absolutely no residual taste. I don't know how they did it, but this incredible product is a MUST-HAVE if you have a mug that you find impossible to clean!" —Erica C.

4. And a handy bottle brush set you can use along with the above tablets or with good old fashioned soap and water to give your bottle the cleaning it deserves.
The set includes a big bottle brush, a straw brush, and a round detail brush that's great for mouthpieces.
Promising review: "We have several bottles we use for water and I occasionally put iced tea in mine, so they get dirty. This tool is perfect for cleaning all of them. We use Hydro Flask water bottles, and one had a plastic straw that was impossible to clean before we has this tool. The big brush fits down all of our bottles and reaches the bottom. The straw cleaner works great with any straws, and we use the last tool to clean the mouth pieces and it works for that. This is a great little kitchen tool to have around if you use reusable bottles. It definitely helps us not throw away a couple hundred plastic bottles of water a month!!" —WolfHunter1043
Get a set of three from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two colors).
5. An amazing stainless-steel bar that over 2,000 reviewers swear by for getting all kinds of kitchen smells off their hands. You use it just like you would a bar of real soap, and odor molecules bind with the steel molecules to leave your hands stink-free!
It never needs to be replaced, and some people even say it works under their arms for busting B.O.! Check out BuzzFeed's full write-up on this bar.
Promising review: "Nobody likes smelly hands from working in the kitchen, and I have a volunteer job that involves working with animals that eat mouse and quail. There is nothing like the smell of mouse on your hand when you're trying to eat lunch. I originally got one of these because it's safe to use in a zoo facility since it's just steel, not something involving harsh chemicals that could harm the animals. It's been working very well. Once I had success, I bought more for people who often cook with garlic, onions, meat, etc. I highly recommend this product!" —CamilleElise
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
6. A Cerama Bryte cooktop cleaning kit, which has everything you need to ensure that those stains on your smooth-top range will be ~cooked~ — just ask the over 2,000 folks who've left a ~range~ of praise.
It comes with a bottle of cleaner, a scraper, and a cleaning pad.
Promising review: "Works amazing! I hadn't thoroughly scrubbed my glass cooktop in years, only wiped it down with random multi cleaners that never seemed to do much. Then a friend recommended this product...AMAZING! The included scrubbers and scrapers really make the difference. As others have said, it will leave your cooktop shiny and new. Even marks that had been on there for years came almost completely off — 98% better. The key is to use very little product. Let it dry to a haze and wipe with a clean dry cotton towel (just like waxing a car). If you aren't getting a mirrored finish, it's because you've used too much product and not enough elbow grease to polish it off." —B. Swartwood
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
7. A bestselling Stasher reusable silicone bag able to survive the oven, microwave, dishwasher, freezer, and sous vide that will probably make you wonder why you ever wasted time (and plastic) using disposable versions.
Promising review: "Start with one or two (sandwich size is a good starter) and build your stash as you get rid of the Ziploc bags in your drawers. We've been using all sizes of Stasher bags for nearly a year and haven't had any issues with a single one. We use them to keep crackers/chips/bread from getting stale after opened, to keep leftovers in the fridge or freezer, and pack sandwiches/meds/dog food or treats and so many more things. We sous vide in them, heat up food in the microwave in them, put them in the dishwasher, and marinate in them. They don't leak, they don't smell, they're easy to close and open, and they don't take up much room compared to traditional Tupperware or other food storage. If you put squishy stuff or liquid in there, soaking with baking soda and vinegar for 30 minutes can make sure the crevices don’t mold as some reviewers mention. I do this a couple of times a month regardless of what's in them. They do cost more than regular plastic bags and require more work, because obviously you don't just use them once — make the switch and stop with the single use plastics." —Maison Leach
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in six sizes and 13 colors).
8. A clean/dirty dishwasher magnet, because you might wonder why over 1,000 people left positive reviews for a magnet, but you'll understand when it saves you from having ANOTHER fight with your S.O. or roommate for throwing their icky cereal bowl in with the dishes you JUST. FREAKING. WASHED.
Promising review: "This holds really well to the door of the dishwasher and I couldn't be more pleased with it. It's very simple and no-frills, but it does the job and didn't cost a lot. It makes our lives much easier not having to worry if the dishes are clean, and it saves water that way!" —brooke
Get it from Amazon for $4.67.
9. A low-key miraculous sink cleaner to polish all sorts of sink surfaces, from porcelain to acrylic to granite, and help eliminate stains and scuffs you thought you were just gonna have to live with.
It also creates a shiny, water-repellent surface that water will just bead off.
Promising review: "I've been looking for a cleaning product that would remove the stains from my acrylic sink without damaging the surface. I FOUND IT!! This product is unbelievable. Yes, it does require an investment of time and elbow grease, but the results were amazing. It removed stains that had been in my white acrylic sink for quite some time and left the surface squeaky clean, smooth and shiny, without a scratch. If you have an acrylic sink, this is the product for you. I HIGHLY recommend it!! I'm going to try it on my mother's enamel sink next, and definitely intend to buy Hope's Perfect Sink again. It DOES live up to its name!!" —Beckett
Get it from Amazon for $6.10.
10. A wall-mountable mixer attachment organizer, because your fave stand mixer attachments are sooo helpful, but also so bulky that they pose a very unique storage struggle.
This Texas-based small business stocks lots of helpful kitchen products, including plenty of other accessories for your prized KitchenAid mixer.
Promising review: "The second handy item from this seller that I’m loving! For years now, my mixer heads have taken up valuable space in my cabinet and when you have limited space, you look for solutions. This gadget is now installed under a cabinet out of the way. I think it actually looks like a bit of kitchen sculpture. A clever solution to keep clutter at bay!" —esmosmom
Get it from 3DHomeSolution on Etsy for $12 (available in three colors and with your choice of Command strips or wood screws for mounting). You can also get a version that just holds a single attachment here.
11. Keurig cleaning cups that can be used with any Keurig single-cup machine and will keep your homemade brews tasting their best, without any residue from old batches to make them taste like the crappy cup of coffee Buddy buys Jovie in Elf.
"Brew" one of these in your machine about once a week or when switching between regular coffee and tea and sweetened drinks so that you can make the actual world's best cup of coffee.
Promising review: "Tried this on the office machine that hadn't been cleaned in forever, and I couldn't believe the disgusting brown/black water that came out. But, holy moly, what a difference! It even cleaned the tea stains out of the cup I used to catch the water running through the machine. And everything now tastes so much better!" —Batzone
Get a pack of five from Amazon for $17.
12. Glisten Disposal Care foaming cleaner, which'll not only stop your garbage disposal from smelling like something died down there, but also look dang cool doing it.
All you gotta do is run some hot water, pop one of the packets in your disposer, let it foam, then wait for the foam to fully disappear. Then, kiss all the ickiness that's been living down there goodbye!
Promising review: "WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE???! Holy cow, I didn't realize how easy and quick it was to clean a garbage disposal until I bought this product! Typically, I'd just use vinegar and baking soda down the drain and call it good. I didn't know that there was an actual disposal cleaning product available until I stumbled across it through a BuzzFeed article. I had to try it. The instructions are very simple. It literally takes five minutes and some hot water and VOILA! you have a clean, no-longer-stinky garbage disposal. Any time I got a whiff of an odor, all I did was drop one of these packs in the disposal and the smell was GONE! Plus, the blue foam bubbling in the sink was amusing to watch. Worth every penny!!" —VadersGirl
Get two bags of four packets each from Amazon for $10.10.
13. A super useful washable, reusable, cotton-blend towel made to do (and excel at) one very specific job. Namely, absorb all the grease from your bacon with less waste than just using a paper towel.
Just use it to blot bacon like you would a normal paper towel, then soak it in hot water and degreasing dish soap and toss it in the washer to be used again. This genius creation is from a woman-owned, Colorado-based shop that makes fabric alternatives to all sorts of disposable household products and donates 1% of proceeds to Climate Emergency Fund.
Promising review: "OK, I'm really impressed! I thought it might be inconvenient compared with paper, but I am sooo amazed! It soaked up the bacon and left it perfect (no paper bits). Super easy to wash with a bit of dish soap by hand and toss it in the dishwasher. I'm telling all my friends! Excellent shop, highly recommend!" —Julie
Get it from GreenCityLiving on Etsy for $10.20.
14. Amazing dishwasher cleaning tablets that are septic-safe, made for busting mineral buildup and odors, and beloved by over 3,000 (!!!) reviewers.
Just pop one in for a full cycle and let it work its magic. Plus, you only need to use it once a month, so a single, $6 six-pack will last you a while!
Promising review: "Worked very well! We’ve lived in our home a while, and small remedies haven’t done much to help clean the dishwasher. I finally decided to give a cleaner a try, and this one worked exceptionally well. The pics above are after one use of two packs (as per instructions for a particularly dirty washer). I'll definitely be getting more when I run out to help maintain a cleaner dishwasher!" —chocobeanie
Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $5.99.
15. Genius silicone dish gloves with scrubby bristles on the inner palm and fingers, because why bother reaching for sponges and brushes when you can ~hand~le all the gunk on your dishes with your own digits?
They'd work great for cleaning tasks outside the kitchen, too!
Promising review: "These gloves make cleaning and washing dishes much easier and more efficient. They foam up quite well and scrub dishes just as well as any sponges. They'll save me a lot from buying sponges. The silicone is nice and thick, and the bristles are nicely compact and scrub well. Definitely worth the price." —Joseph Ho
Get them from Amazon for $7.99 (available in three colors).
16. Super spicy ground habanero powder you can use to (literally) heat up every dish from meat to veggies to rice to soup. May I also ~pepper~ in the fact that it's kosher, nonGMO, and sourced from environmentally responsible farmers?
It's from a Black woman-owned brand that specializes in sustainably produced African spices, powders, and baking mixes.
Promising review: "You see 'habaneros' and expect a punch in the mouth. This is not that. It's a fragrant, almost fruity pepper that elevates shakshuka to a whole new level. I add a pinch of it into all sorts of different dishes instead of black pepper. You wouldn't know the difference if I didn't tell you what it was, except that the food just tastes better. A little goes a long way, so the pouch has lasted us for several months already. I am going to buy more soon, and will try some of this lady's other spices when I do." —Shayla Williams
Get it from Amazon for $6.99.
17. An amazing all-purpose tool that's a spoon, slotted spoon, turner, spatula, and sharp cutting edge all in one sleek package.
It's dishwasher-safe!
Promising review: "This tool is the best thing in my kitchen currently. It literally does everything it should and does it well. Pro tip: instead of using two forks to shred chicken, use one fork and the sharp edge of this thing. It pretty much changed my life." —Joey Campbell
Get it from Amazon for $19.79.
18. Debbie Meyer GreenBags here to save you major waste and $$$. They can keep your produce fresher much longer and be reused eight to 10 times!!!
The reviewer comparison above is what two bananas — one kept in the bag and one not — looked like after four or five days!
Promising review: "I am a big warehouse shopper and in the past often couldn’t eat all those berries or all that lettuce before they went bad. So I followed the directions and made sure the produce was dry (lettuce, spinach, asparagus, and blueberries). For the lettuce and asparagus, saw a little condensation in the bag, so put a paper towel in the bag where moisture was accumulating. Two weeks later, the berries were almost as fresh as day one. Lettuce was still crisp and crunchy and only a few pieces of spinach were starting to wilt. Asparagus were crisp as well. I would definitely recommend and will continue to try with other fruits and vegetables." —BAS
Get a pack of 20 (eight medium, eight large, and four extra-large) from Amazon for $9.88.
19. A three-in-one burger press, aka a burger lover's dream. It's got molds sized for regular patties and sliders, plus a tool that'll make creating gourmet-level stuffed patties super easy. Major *chef's kiss.*
It's dishwasher safe and nonstick.
Promising review: "Hubby was not real thrilled when I decided to buy this item after watching someone in a video make a stuffed burger using one. He said his burgers were 'just fine.' Well, let me tell you, after the first use, he came inside while grilling and said 'OK, so you were right. The burgers turned out perfectly sized, and because they are all shaped evenly, they cook better and don't fall through the grates.' I loved the fact that I could stick some cheese or olives in the middle of it and have a stuffed burger. Just buy it. I think you'll love your new burger patty maker!" —Rebecca R.
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
20. Pretty, reusable Swedish dish cloths that are both more sustainable than paper towels and a heck of a lot cuter. They can be washed in the the washing machine *or* dishwasher and composted when they are finally worn out.
They're from a Philadelphia-based small business specializing in eco-friendly laundry and dishwashing products!
Promising review: "Love it! Really enjoy using these dish cloths for dish washing over and over. Just put in the washing machine to wash and you can put in the microwave for one minute to sanitize if needed. No more traditional dish cloths/sponges for me." —Ellen S.
Get a set of three from Dropps for $16 (or $12 with a subscription).
21. A nonstick mini griddle to make cooking for one way less of a hassle (and actually get you to do it instead of ordering takeout). It's perfect for cooking up single-person servings of eggs, meat, skillet cookies, paninis, and so much more without a mess. Griddle me this: Is there anything you can't make on this baby?
I'm hard pressed to think of any. Plus, it's extra great for cooking newbies, because it comes with a book of recipes plus access to an online database with even more!
Promising review: "I LOVE this little gem. The portion size is perfect for one and you can get creative. It cooks stir-fry-size meats quickly and perfectly. It makes a grilled cheese on a small bun perfectly and cooks an egg perfectly. Clean up is so easy and quick; I love not messing up a pan and the stove. I like to eat, but for me, cooking for one is not especially fun. This is almost fun and so easy. All I really use now is this, the microwave, and a coffee pot. The kitchen stays immaculate!" —Jaiyen
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four colors).
22. Dawn Platinum Powerwash Dish Spray, a grease-busting spritz that starts sudsing on contact to spare you from scrubbing.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly loves this stuff! She says: "I live in an apartment without a dishwasher, and I honestly use that as an excuse to order takeout instead of cooking. But as soon as I got my hands on a bottle of this stuff (regular Dawn is my go-to dish soap, BTW), I put it to use on both a saucepan I used to make homemade enchilada sauce *and* the casserole dish I baked those enchiladas in, which had a ton of caked-on food. It really does work like I say it does! Like, scary well."
Promising review: "It cleans so well my dishes squeak! Really loving this! I feel like I’m not wasting so much detergent. Plus, I love that I can squirt it directly into the plastic straws on my reusable travel cups!" —Gma
Get it from Target for $4.99.
23. A roasted garlic aioli you may just start dipping absolutely everything in — aio-leave it to this stuff to make sure you never take a boring bite again.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Emma Lord is obsessed with this stuff. She says, "This aioli is a combo of creamy mayo + slow roasted garlic + the teensiest hint of mustard, giving it a rich, umami-esque flavor with a perfect amount of tang that pairs well with pretty much all nondessert foods — a true life hack of a condiment for anyone who has no idea how to cook, but is determined to live a lie in lockdown." You can also check out her full review of this aioli.
Promising review: "Whether on a sandwich or to dip a bite of rack of lamb into, this is my go-to spread! I buy it by the case and give gifts to friends." —Robin V.
Get it from Stonewall Kitchen for $7.95.
24. An adorable egg cooker that can give you up to six perfect hard-boiled eggs in 12–15 minutes, no actual boiling water required. Because who actually has all that egg-stra time or patience when they're hangry???
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Marquaysa Battle swears by this — check out her full Dash egg cooker review.
Promising review: "I love this egg cooker so much, I bought another one! One for home, and one for my apartment at work. Eggs taste much better than boiling them, and they are super easy to peel, even if stored in the fridge for a few days. I’ve made poached eggs and scrambled eggs in it, too. I won’t use two eggs for scrambled because they come out too hard. One at a time is good. Good for small kitchens, RVs, boats, motel rooms, and if on a road trip with an inverter, you could have a nice little breakfast! Cooks up to six eggs, but I usually make two to four." —Alli Mosley
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in five colors).
25. A handy suction cup sponge caddy you can affix to the wall or your sink to keep your sponge dry and fresh for as long as possible. Because kitchen sponges are already gross enough without you letting them fester in the basin of your sink.
Check out one BuzzFeeder's piece on why kitchen sponges are actually disgusting.
Promising review: "This is one of those cheap purchases you make that pay off big. I honestly can't imagine my life without this product. I go to other people's houses and judge them when I see their sponges, just LYING THERE on the counter or the bottom of the sink. What are you, an animal? Get some self respect! Don't you realize what is happening to that sponge? That thing is a soaking bacteria garbage barge. Put it in its place! And then I realize that this person's sponge doesn't have a place, because they were never smart enough to buy a suction cup sponge holder that helps dry your sponge out and keeps your sink looking orderly." —Kevin T Beyer
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in six colors).
26. A pack of cheerful and colorful Scrub Daddy sponges ingeniously designed to be odor-resistant and scratch free, with eye holes that make an easy grip and a mouth for scrubbing both sides of silverware at once. Forgive me for saying this, but yes, Daddy.
This multicolor pack allows you to color code which sponges you use for which areas of your home! Check out BuzzFeed's full Scrub Daddy write-up.
Promising review: "Love, love, love Scrub Daddy sponges, and I haven't bought another sponge since I discovered the company after watching Shark Tank. I know the mouth is supposed to be great for spoons, but I honestly don't even use it that way. This sponge just cleans everything: my granite counters, my stainless steel sink, my wooden dining table, dishes, etc. NOTHING is damaged, and the best part of these sponges is that they don't stink like a dumpster after a week of use. Not only do they do their job, but you're actually saving money in the long run from not having to buy sponges all the time. Whenever one does start to smell a bit, I just throw it on the rack in the dishwasher and run it through a cycle, and it lasts another two weeks or so." —Peaceful Pines
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $14.99.
27. Mike's Hot Honey, a chili-infused honey that may make you realize you've been eating food wrong all your life — because pretty much anything is better with this stuff on it. Yes, we write about it all the time, but there's a reason.
Several reasons, actually, including over 2,000 positive reviews. Check out BuzzFeed's full Mikes Hot Honey review.
Promising review: "This mixed-up honey is absolutely fabulous. I gave in and ordered three bottles more after my initial order, because it's really good on everything. And I mean EVERYTHING: soft pretzels, toast, biscuits, waffles, cereal, yogurt, ice cream, and definitely pizza. It gives everything in your kitchen a small kick of sweet heat flavor without burning your mouth up. I've told many of my friends about this magical elixir and they all agree. This is the BEST specialty honey any of us have ever had." —Jeff R. Clow
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
28. A special "bib" for your splashy faucet, because *everyone* drips water at least a bit when they wash their hands or dishes — you're not doing it wrong. Especially if you live in an NYC apartment with a very strange water pressure-to-sink-basin ratio like I do.
It's from an Oregon-based small business, and you can also message the seller for a custom design.
Promising review: "LOVE these splash catchers! They save me from having to chase the puddles that form around the base of our faucet before they start creeping over the counter. So reasonably priced, made well with neatly finished edges, and packaged with gift-ready care. Highly recommended!" —Alina
Get it from TwoLilacsStudio on Etsy for $12+ (available in four sizes and six colors).
29. A reusable, stink-proof dish cloth that scrubs super well without retaining all the grossness that regular sponges do. Oh, and unlike said basic sponge, this can last for months and months...and months.
The holey texture makes it easy to rinse out food residue that would be left rotting in a dense sponge. They can also be tossed in the dishwasher or washing machine when you want to give them a more thorough cleaning (though they may shrink in the dryer).
Promising review: "I have been using this same cloth daily for almost seven months. I lathers like a dream with very little soap and scrubs well without damaging the finish on delicate items. It dries quickly, and is in great shape even after so much use. I throw it in the washer once a week to keep it fresh and clean. I used to go through one sponge a week. It has paid for itself many times over. These hold a lot of water, so use a separate rag for cleaning counters. Update: I now use these cloths exclusively. I replace them roughly every five or six months, and retire the old one to household scrub duty. To get the most life out of these cloths, I lay them flat on a dish towel and roll it up to remove the excess water and lay it over drain rack to air dry. I do this every day and they don't sour." —Shaida Ehlert
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
30. A BPA-free drain protector featuring a whimsical animal friend here to collect all the chunks of stuff you really don't want going down your drain (and really don't want to clean up by hand, either).
Promising review: "This is a cute piece that works perfectly in my sink, and dare I say it adds a bit of happy to the chore of washing dishes. I hand wash most of the time, and this keeps small items like silverware from falling in the disposal while they wait for a rinse. It's mostly plastic, but good quality and easy to clean." —Kim Ballard
Get it from Amazon for $6.49+ (available in eight designs).
31. A universal jar opener that takes up — get this — ZERO drawer space. Because you don't have as big a kitchen as the Krusty Krab, but you do sometimes feel like Patrick struggling to open a jar.
It comes with peel-and-stick adhesive and three screws to easily install it!
Promising review: "I've tried a million different tools and gadgets for help opening jars of all sizes, and each one had its own issues! Finally, someone has invented the perfect jar opener that is simple and requires no space in your kitchen drawers or counters. There was one reviewer who suggested placing the opener with the sharp end of the V closest to you and with it placed in the front, right corner under your cabinet. I followed those directions and it works perfectly and easily. I've already placed an order for another one as a gift for my sister." —moorecats
Get it from Amazon for $14.95.
32. The Guac-Lock, an amazing airtight container that'll allow you to enjoy guacamole goodness for days on end with no browning. It's the scientific advancement we always knew we needed but never thought possible — dreams really do come true.
The guac in the reviewer pic on the right is SIX days old!!!!
Promising review: "We have several avocado trees and make guacamole on a regular basis. The thing I hate most is how guacamole turns color after just a few minutes of being in the refrigerator. The Guac-Lock not only kept our guacamole fresh and tasting great, but it also kept it that way for over a week! (We did it as an experiment, not to actually eat it after a full week). I'm thoroughly impressed by how well it keeps guacamole fresh and how easy it is to use. If you're a lover of guacamole but hate how quickly it turns, this is definitely what you need! We've also purchased this to be included in a few housewarming gifts for new neighbors, along with avocados and tomatoes from our garden and it's been well-received. One of our neighbors asked where we got it because she loved it so much that she wanted to purchase one for her mother." —Dani Banani
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
33. Gluten-free and keto-friendly cheddar cheese powder to easily and deliciously flavor pretty much anything you could ever want to put cheese on...which is basically everything. *Sprinkles cheese on entire life.*
Promising review: "This cheddar cheese powder is amazing! I have added it to popcorn and used it to make a mac 'n' cheese substitute similar to the blue box variety, which came out perfect. It tastes very similar without all the chemicals and additives. I will repurchase. My child with sensory issues will only eat Kraft and she approved. Mom win!" —Aurora Cosmos
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
34. A 3-in-1 avocado tool that's a splitter, de-pitter, and slicer all at once, because the only bad part about eating avocados is actually trying to get all that goodness out of the skin.
I have this and use it all the time. TBH, most times I only use the splitter knife, but it's worth it to me even just to not have to break out a super sharp knife every time I want to eat an avocado (which is often).
Promising review: "This tool is awesome. It's easy to cut open the fruit. The pit remover works well — just push onto the pit and give it a twist, and the pit pops right out. The best part is the slicer. It makes beautiful slices for a great presentation (see attached photo of slices...okay, one side came out perfectly, and I kind of messed up the other side). The tool can then be used to scrape any remaining fruit out of the skin. Really happy I bought this tool!" —NPR MAN
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
35. A downright genius bag holder for those moments when you feel like you'd need one or two additional limbs to stop meal prep from being such a mess. Over 3,000 reviewers share that struggle and rely on these to help.
Promising review: "I prep my meals a month at a time and these make it much more convenient. These are especially helpful with raw meat, as I can use two hands while prepping the food and don't have to worry about keeping one clean to open the bag.

Promising review: "As someone who has a child (now a teenager) that will not eat any form of cheese, this pan is amazing! I typically avoid making any food that has cheese mixed into it, but now I can make him a section without cheese and the rest of us our regular cheesy goodness. Another benefit to this pan is how well the portions slice. One cut with the spatula gives you a perfectly formed square. Each section makes four regular-sized portions for our family." —TLC101
