Jar-with-a-Twist Eliminates Peanut Butter Fingers

Posted on by

I recently bought one of those elongated spoons because I got tired of ending up with sticky hands all the time after getting the last few spoonfuls of peanut butter from the jar.

I’m sure many of you have a problem with the same thing. The good news is that this first-world problem might soon be resolved. How? By re-doing the jar.

Jar with a Twist

You might be wondering, how do you re-do a jar? How do you “redesign” something that’s been used for many, many decades already?

jar with a twist 2

Just ask the folks behind the Jar-with-a-Twist. They came up with the twist-jar that you’re supposed to twist so its contents are slowly “raised” from the jar so you can swipe at it more easily with your spoon or knife. It’s sort of like a giant lipstick, but for your peanut butter, salsa or jelly.

Its creators hope to make the jar affordable enough for mass production so that everyone can enjoy the benefits of having a jar that twists up.

BNTO – Your Food Jar

Posted on by

If you think nothing could ace Cuppow, the revolutionary canning jar + travel mug solution, then hold onto your horses and take a look at BNTO! This canning jar + cup + lid takes food travel to the next level. It is a combination that allows you to travel with any kinda food BNTO style! Think salsa and chips, cheesy dip and crackers, mayo and salad, yogurt and muesli; wet and dry held separately thanks to BNTO’s unique compartment!

Taking inspiration by the original Japanese bento boxes, Cuppow’s BNTO allows you to carry foods that taste the best together but don’t travel well together! Basically canning jars are easy to clean, cheap, and make awesome lunchboxes. What we have here is a conveniently shaped insert that separates a canning jar into two compartments so you can mix or dip your food.

Currently the BNTO line holds 6 fluid ounces (3/4 cup) and is built to fit snugly under the standard metal lid of a wide-mouth canning jar.

Cuppow com¬mits 5% of their profits to domestic charities and social initiatives, so you can feel great while you eat great!

Now You Can Leave Tips Using Your Credit Card with DipJar

Posted on by

While most sit-down restaurants offer a way to add on a tip when you sign the credit card slip, It’s a bit of a hassle to have to fish for some loose change or bills in your wallet after paying for a cup of coffee or snacks using your credit card. But if DipJar gets traction, then you might soon be able to leave tips simply by ‘dipping’ your card into the jar.

DipjarDipJar is an electronic jar of sorts that has been programmed to charge you $1 every time you dip your card into it. So if you want to leave a $5 tip, you’re going have to swipe your card five times, so that might sound taxing. But really, how tiring is it to have to dip your card five times into the slot? I’d imagine not very much – though it might wear out the stripe on your card faster.

Dipjar1

The DipJar is currently being tested for use in coffee shops, restaurants, cafes, and every other establishment out there that accepts tips. You can contact the crew behind it if you want to get a DipJar for your own establishment. All you have to do is tell them a bit about your store and location and sign up on their site. If they like you, they’ll send you a DipJar so you can start collecting tips electronically.
