Weirdest Amazon Products that are Actually Useful

29. [amazon title=”Bear Paws Meat Shredder Claws” link=”B003IWI66W”] [amazon fields=”B003IWI66W” value=”price” format=”linked”]

Some of you out there may be wondering what they heck these claws are for. But when you are cooking pulled pork, you need to pull the meat apart after it has been slow-cooking for a long time. These meat shredder claws help you do that, rather than using forks to pull the meat apart. A customer named Sean Thompson had this to say; “I bought these after looking at a lot of different Shredding claws. The Original Bear Paws looked to be the best. It only took me one use to realize that they are. They are very solid in construction and very comfortable to hold while shredding. When I first received these, my wife thought they were gimmicky and questioned my purchase. I let her try them on a pulled pork and she didn’t want to give them back!”

There are some people out there who get a strange satisfaction out of popping pimples. So much so that there are even YouTube channels dedicated to it, like Dr. Pimple Popper. Because of that, it makes sense that this pimple popping toy exists. However, it’s still pretty gross. A customer named Emmy had this to say; “Best gift ever!! My friend. Loves to pop pimples….I got her this as a birthday gift!!! I barely can see what I’m typing because of all the tears in my eyes from laughing. If you have a pimple enthusiast in your life, you HAVE to buy this for them!!”

A customer named Penny said, “My husband made fun of me for getting this. One day I was draining some veggies with this little guy and went to the other room for a moment. Two minutes later I hear my husband cackling from the kitchen. I walked him to find him doubled over, laughing to tears, pointing at the sink where this little guy’s eyes were poking out.

That’s impressive! Here’s what an Amazon customer named Ace had to say, “I ordered these for my older boys who love Star Wars. I was worried about the negative reviews but I’m really glad I still bought them. They are bigger than expected but still great chopsticks, don’t have grip on them so noodles might be a little challenging. The light is bright and is a great conversation starter when we company over or when my boys decide they need to start a lightsaber battle halfway into dinner. Definitely recommend for star wars fans for a fun addition to your kitchen utensils.”

25. [amazon title=”Why You No With Plunger” link=”B06XXTLT3Q”] [amazon fields=”B06XXTLT3Q” value=”price” format=”linked”]

Honestly, I’m not sure why this is here. The “Why you no” meme has circulated the internet for a number of different reasons, and now it’s on this shower curtain. “Why you no plunger?” That’s a great question. Do you know the answer? Here is what an Amazon customer named Alexis had to say, “This product was absolutely incredible. My bestie screamed and laughed when she saw it and it was hands down the best Christmas present she had ever received. One con is that having it up in your home will definitely decrease the value of the home so if you decide to sell take the curtain down beforehand. The quality was fabulous and I considered buying another for myself. Best money I’ve ever spent”

This bread pillow is the perfect size and shape. If you aren’t satisfied the zipper allows add and removal of stuffing. It looks realistic in photos which makes a hilarious prop, but it’s as soft as mink fur.”

23. [amazon title=”Zhdun Meme Piggy Bank” link=”B071S8RWM5″] [amazon fields=”B071S8RWM5″ value=”price” format=”linked”]

This piggy bank looks like some strange alien creature, but it’s actually based on a sculpture called Homunculus Loxodontus. It’s supposed to embody the emotions that people feel when they wait at the doctor’s office. The creature became so popular, it’s now a meme. I can’t really recommend this unless your friends know the meme already, but it could potentially be a funny gift to give someone. An Amazon customer named Cat said, “I got this as a gift for a friend who just loves memes. We both laughed for probably a half hour over this. It’s beautiful and it will be cherished.”

An Amazon customer named Katherine said, “These gloves are so fun, and well-made. The rubber part is supple yet thick enough to resist tearing, and the claws are perfect for digging in either wet or dry soil that is not too hard packed. The only problem is that while you can dig away like a badger on steroids, when it comes time for more fine-motor gardening tasks, you have to remove the gloves because your newly minted badger abilities become useless.”

20. [amazon title=”Bacon Strip Bandages” link=”B01N1JXQKJ”] [amazon fields=”B01N1JXQKJ” value=”price” format=”linked”]

An Amazon customer named Hannah S said, “Ordered this as a gift for my sister and was surprised with the quality of it after reading mixed reviews. The blanket I got was a teal color made up of a few shades of blues and greens interwoven in a wave crochet pattern. It’s much nicer than I expected for the price. The blanket is tight to about mid thigh then opens up to a blanket top with an opening for feet. It is snug. I’m 5′ and 130 lbs and it was snug on my legs but long. Overall I think it’s a cute gift!

I bought this set for our new nephew. He was nicknamed Taco because his mommy craved Tacos the entire pregnancy. Now he looks like a little taco or burrito in this very soft swaddle set. The hat came undone upon removing it from the package. The inner lining fell out, it has to be in the knot or it falls out. I don’t know if it is on purpose. Other than that we all thought it was realistic and adorable!”

An Amazon customer named Stefan said, “I’m part Asian and as such I eat a lot of rice. Like a LOT of rice. No, it’s not a stereotype, it’s just a fact. Rice and rice accessories are serious business in my household. Almost as serious as propane and propane accessories are to Hank Hill. This little guy works well. He stands up on his own and is well balanced. Not to mention the fact that it’s super cute. Some starchy rice particles can stick to the tail but it’s easy to wash off.”

16. [amazon title=”Upside Down Condiment Bottle Holder” link=”B071NHMBS6″] [amazon fields=”B071NHMBS6″ value=”price” format=”linked”]

It was delivered, and my son in law had it together within 30 minutes.

A customer named Elizabeth Grimes said, “I love having a jump that you can adjust and have your jos counted, however the weight only goes up to double digits because it’s in kg instead of lbs which is pretty confusing. I love it anyway, I just ignore the weight part.”

10. [amazon title=”Shower Foot Rest” link=”B08SHFKN3B”] [amazon fields=”B08SHFKN3B” value=”price” format=”linked”]

Anyone who shaves their legs already knows how difficult it can be to get it done in the shower. This is especially true if you don’t have any kind of footrest built into the table. This shower foot rest is exactly what it sounds like. It gives you the ability to shave your legs in a shower that doesn’t have anywhere else for your foot to go. An Amazon customer said, “I read the reviews and decided to get it although a good amount of them were bad. One lady left a good review saying she didn’t use the sticker.

Heavy weight plastic surrounding a sharp grid that cuts into your hot dog. I am not sure why people are having trouble cutting unless they are trying it on a sausage. Works great for me on my Costco Hot Dogs and Hebrew National. Just place it over a properly chilled hot dog, and rock it from left to right then remove the hot dog from the grid. Makes rockstar hot dogs. Pre-cut a bunch for your party then cook to order on the grill and watch the comments fly.”

I had doubts originally, but I verified the temp, and it was within tolerance listed and 3-degrees of the meat thermometer, so this is a definite positive and provides a visual indication in addition to finding it funny. I will still verify with a meat thermometer, but it is officially a part of the holiday cooking now.”

I definitely recommend Yoga Toes for those wanting to correct their toe alignment. Take the journey, you won’t regret it.”

An Amazon customer named DC said, “This was a great investment for my 12-day trip abroad. It is soft, high quality material. The latch at the top is plastic, but has a clever insert and snap up design–so it was very study.

1. [amazon title=”Mushroom Night Light” link=”B078BPSGCT”] [amazon fields=”B078BPSGCT” value=”price” format=”linked”]

Why have your average night light when you can get something as magical as this? This night light has mushrooms and flowers coming out of it, which looks very whimsical and Cottagecore. A customer named HerLi said, “These are super classy looking. The only mushroom that changes color is the front short one and the other two are uniquely colored but don’t change. The light that does change goes from red to yellow to green to blue then to a purple and back to red slowly and at random. This looks really great and is not at all cheaply made. The sensor is very sensitive to light so you would want to put it where it actually gets dark so that you can really enjoy it. Great price for something so great looking. I will definitely be buying more for gifts because I get compliments from everyone that notices them.”
