Just realized my kitchen drawer was a graveyard for single-use gadgets
Honestly, I cleared out all the unitaskers and kept only the multi-functional tools. Ngl, cooking feels simpler now. What's your rule for deciding what kitchen gear to keep?

Is it even a proper kitchen if you don't have a drawer dedicated to regrettable impulse buys? I clung to a dedicated avocado slicer for an embarrassing amount of time before admitting it was just a weird knife with commitment issues. Now I judge everything by whether it can convincingly moonlight as something else, like a salad spinner that also works as a makeshift helmet for bad hair days. Honestly, if it doesn't earn its counter space by being useful or at least mildly entertaining, it gets donated.

Forgot I owned a garlic press until it fell on my foot during the great drawer purge. My rule is if I can't immediately name three uses for it, the thing is just defensive architecture against empty drawer space. That weird banana hanger? It's a coat hook for someone much more flexible than me. Honestly most unitaskers are just regular tools with an identity crisis and worse ergonomics.
