Caffeinated Sunflower Seeds

by Steve
Monday, March 05, 2007

Now they’re selling sunflower seeds laced with energy boosters like caffeine, taurine, lysine, and ginseng.The product named, “SumSeeds”, are described as premium roasted sunflower seeds supercharged with the same stuff found in “energy” sodas. The manufacturer then goes on to boast the natural goodness of sunflower seeds, such as Vitamin E, Zinc and Iron, to make its product doubly good.

I imagine something like this will be popular with baseball players.

Computerized Pillow Stops Snoring

by Steve
Wednesday, October 03, 2007

Reuters reports that a German scientist named Daryoush Bazargani has invented a computerized pillow that automatically adjusts the position of your head to minimize snoring.”The pillow is attached to a computer, which is the size of a book, rests on a bedside table, and analyses snoring noises”, says Bazargani. “The computer then reduces or enlarges air compartments within the pillow to facilitate nasal airflow to minimize snoring as the user shifts during sleep.”

He has apparently talked several U.S. firms about manufacturing the pillow.

The Fizz – Screw-on Ice Cream Float Cup

by Steve
Friday, January 04, 2008

 

The Fizz is a plastic cup that screws on to a plastic PET bottle allowing you to create a mobile ice cream float.

Once you screw the cup to a bottle, fill it up with ice cream, then insert a straw, and finally, squeeze the bottle. This fills the cup with soda, allowing you to sip out a mixture of ice cream and soda.

The cup is reusable, but not dishwasher safe.

Pancakes from an Aerosol Can

by Steve
Thursday, October 25, 2007

 

Batter Blaster is probably going to change the way pancake batter is sold.

This probably needs little explanation: just shake the can, point it to a hot griddle, and push on the nozzle.

Not sure why this hasn’t been thought of earlier.

The nutrition label says each can contains 8 servings, and it’s carries the USDA “Organic” stamp.

The Batter Blaster website comes with a video showing you how to use this. It also has instructions on how to cook pancakes.

There’s also a store locator, but I couldn’t find any stores sellings this in the Southern California area where I live. So I typed in a San Francisco zip code (94102), where the company is located, and a bunch of stores came up.

Breakfast Cereal for Dogs

by Steve
Friday, December 30, 2005

 

Bow Wow Breakfast Cereal for Dogs is a new line of dog food intended for morning consumption. The company that makes it claims it’s specifically formulated to meet a dog’s needs in the morning.

I’m not sure specifically what a dog’s needs are in the morning. I find my dogs often need to poop in the morning, maybe that’s what it means.

They have six varieties in all, including:

• Barkfast Squares
• Chompions
• Chewa-Bunga
• Fido Flakes
• Grrr-nola
• Pooch-Cheez

ZAP Smart Car

by Steve
Tuesday, July 26, 2005

 

A company called ZAP (Zero Air Pollution), has produced a version of its ZAP Car for the United States, called the “Smart Car“.

The ZAP Cars have been selling well in Europe for some time, which caused the company to develop a version that meets American standards. Just last week the European-made cars entered the United States on their way to dealers throughout the nation.

The Smart Car is still a gas-powered vehicle, however. It has a rear-mounted 3-cylinder turbo engine producing 60 horse power. It has a six-speed automatic transmission, and an 8.7 gallon fuel capacity.

I couldn’t find any specifics on the company website as to specifically what kind of gas-mileage one would expect from a Smart Car. But I’m sure it’s probably pretty good.
