I see more YouTube chefs using these.
Turning bacon strips and other stuff.
So I got some.
two pair.
One straight and one with an angled grip.
I'm pretty sure I'll use them for something.
Soon.
Pretty soon.

I saw a bunch of Italian chefs on youtube using the tweezers but I think they are just a passing fad.

are just to big and clumsy. Just another tool for certain applications that makes cooking more enjoyable and easier.

(2,483 posts)7. I bought something about ten years ago and two of them
came with whatever it was. I put them in the utensil holder on the counter and that's where they remain. I used one once when my son had the plug thing out of the bathroom sink and dropped the cap from the toothpaste down there. It was perfect for retrieving it, but I've never found a use for them besides that.
