Because we tried them for you in November.
I have some bad news, everybody: We've been eating totally wrong this ENTIRE time. Dramatics aside, it turns out pretty much any food on earth tastes wayyyyyy better with a little bit of Mike's Hot Honey.
That's right — honey. HOT honey!! Honey infused with chili peppers! HECK ya!!! This thing is a frequent best seller among our readers and with good reason: It's freaking delicious. Combining this honey with your favorite foods takes them to a new level and adds an extra dimension. Who doesn't love a good sweet and salty combo? And then the spicy kick at the end makes everything come together.
I got a bottle of this beloved honey and proceeded to pour it on everything I ate. No regrets!!! It's delicious on pizza, empanadas, tacos, burgers, chicken sandwiches, and CHEESE! This is a must for a good cheese plate. It's also great on sweet stuff! The spicy bite tastes amazing on ice cream and brownies. I also tried it in a margarita and it was awesome.
It's a little hot, but it's not overbearing, so it serves more to enhance flavors than to burn your mouth. Adding it to your meal elevates it to the next level without making you feel like you're just eating a bunch of honey. —Bek O'Connell

For better or worse, I blow dry my hair pretty much every day. Don't give me that Jonathan Van Ness gasp of horror! I know it's not great for my hair, I just want luscious locks, sue me. But! I still want to spend as little time with the blowdryer as possible, both for the health of my hair and because I am, in the immortal words of Ursula, a very busy person and I haven't got all day. Enter these drying gloves. First of all, they're purple and fuzzy, so I'd probably love them no matter how well they worked. They claim to be a lot less rough on your hair than towels, and they're so soft that I believe it. It's also way easier, not to mention more satisfying and efficient, to wring your hair out with your gloved hands than with a towel. I still do an initial dry with a towel first, then brush it through, wring out with these, and then brush through a few spritzes of Not Your Mothers In A Heart Beat Blow Dry Accelerator. I don't time my blow drys, but I have been noticing that I'm having more good hair days lately, and my hair often feels smoother. That, plus the chance to have purple monster hands every morning? Totally worth $12. —Katy Herman

I wrote a review a few months ago on a pocket projector, and when my dad came to visit, he loved it so much that he took it with him as "a present for being a great dad" (lol). After a sad, projector-less month, I was more than thrilled when the Kodak DLP Cube Mini Portable Projector came into my life.
This one is a little bigger than the pocket version (as in, you probably can't fit it in your actual pocket), but it still fits in the palm of my hand *AND* it's a lot more powerful. The image quality on this baby is pretty amazing — my living room truly feels like a home theater when I use it (that being said, my apartment is pretty small, so it's not stretching the projector to its max). Yes, larger and more powerful projectors will have even crisper images, but they're not as portable and also WAY more expensive.
It's pretty easy to set up and connect with my phone or computer (which I can do over WiFi or via a cable), the battery provides up to two hours of playback on a full charge, and if you're watching a long movie, you can definitely keep it plugged it so it doesn't run out of juice (which is what I did when rewatching the LOTR trilogy). It has built-in speakers which (admittedly) don't sound as good as separate, full-size ones, but it's good enough for when you're on the go. Some technical stuff: it has a 3.5mm input and integrated HDMI, USB, and MicroSD ports that'll allow you to connect to smart devices, PCs, Macs, cable boxes, gaming consoles, and HDMI video players *and* it comes with a remote control, a mini tripod, an HDMI cable and adapter, a USB Cable, and an AC power adapter (this is great because I didn't have these cables lying around my house).
There's a WiFi-enabled version (the one I have) and a non-WiFi version that's slightly cheaper. If you don't mind connecting it via cable (the method I prefer), you can def opt for the cheaper option. Overall, it's a great little gadget that exceeded my expectations. I'm not even salty that my dad took the old one! So far, I've gotten plenty of uses out of it just watching shows at home, and I'm planning on screening movies for a friend's upcoming birthday party — it's always a hit! —Yi Yang
