It was a cheap generic one in the grocery store for 2 bucks.
You know that thing thats supposed to be a Slotted Spoon - Salad Server - Pasta Fork - Spatula - Whisk and all that.

Well I'm using it last night, whisked some eggs for fried chicken, then while I'm using it to flip the fried chicken, it pinches my hand and I jerk and flick hot oil onto my face, now I have a scab where it burned me.

I should sue damnit.

2. I was going to warn you about the pinching thing.
That's how I ended up with the utensil I have. My uncle used it once, pinched his hand, and gave it to me. I have pinched my hand a few times with the stupid thing. It really doesn't work too well either, other than as a whisk... and this is the "original TV product".

3. if it's true that you should never use the wrong tool to do a job...
...then a 6 in 1 kitchen thingie will be 5/6 wrong for the job all the time!
