I have seen this product a couple of times in TikToks and YouTube videos and thought it was pretty silly , so I decided to share it with you all.
This actually has a practical use, I suppose. What I mean is, yes it does provide some sort of enrichment. It does have a purpose and do a "task". But it isn't something that is a necessity.
I am talking about you, Al Dente.
Some of you may have seen this, it made it's rounds on Facebook a couple years ago.
Al Dente is a little plastic "guy" who you toss in to your pasta and he "sings" when your pasta is done. He has different songs that he sings based on how "done" you like your pasta. It's advertised that he will float in both cold and hot water, which I'm not sure why it's a selling point- but there you have it.
So kitchen warriors and baking baddies, is this something you think you need in your kitchen arsenal now that you know it exists?

A lot of the things on this list of gadgets and stuff aren't stuff you need.

I do not need this. I prefer my pasta rather tender. It is cute though.

IT would be a good gag gift for a housewarming present.

I think it is cute too, I don't think I'd actually ever use it.

I don't know. I wouldn't imagine it is that accurate.

I've never heard of this. But I do not need a plastic creature to tell me my pasta is done like I want it to be.
