Weird Microwave "Robot" Makes Perfect S'mores

Sean Fallon — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 18:20:00 EDT

S'mores are definitely one of my all-time favorite snack foods, and this weird Progressive International Microwavable S’Mores Maker claims to make two perfect s'mores in 30 seconds flat because the little "arms" keep the marshmallows from expanding too much. I still think you need a fire to make perfect s'mores, not some gadget that looks like a melted Mr. Potato Head—but if you insist on throwing your money away, the PIMSM can be had for $6.95.

Zune Insider just shouted to the world that the red Zune—seen much prettier here in their official ad shots—will be available via Target and Amazon starting June 10.

If there's one thing we have to hand to Zune guys, it's that they really know how to pick good looking colors for their players. We're totally in the mood for some juicy, delicious fruit right now. – Jason Chen

Avocado Phone Smells Your Food, Tells You to Eat More Vegetables

Jason Chen — Tue, 29 May 2007 14:41:38 EDT

There are a few things weird about this phone. First, if we were to design a cellphone to smell foods and keep track of your diet, we probably wouldn't design it like an avocado. Second, on the off chance that we were to design it like an avocado, we probably wouldn't make it an avocado with a bite taken out of it. But that's just us.

The idea itself—keeping track of what types of foods you've eaten by its chemical signature and telling you what foods you're lacking—is pretty sound. Why not just integrate it into a regular-looking phone? – Jason Chen

Helio Ocean: The Cake

Our female-fearing cousins over at Kotaku are familiar with cakes made in the shape of their favorite things (games), but we don't often get the pleasure of eating our own gadgets. That's why this Helio Ocean cake made by a geeksugar reader is so sweet (heh).

The cake itself looks gigantic, and features none of the features the actual Ocean has—unless you count the fact that they both make us drool. Hit the link to see more pictures and the two creators posing next to the cake.
