You need to pull up from the bottom on the old paper towel holder, using the arm to help get the tear started whenever it give you trouble. The arm holds it steady enough that a small twist gets it started. The butter spreader leaves a rounded shape on the outside *with the second cut onwards.* The first cut still has a flat edge on the surface that contacts the corn.

Your original paper towel holder is actually better than the one that you are reviewing, you just need to flip the paper towel roll over for it to work correctly. That swirly part that ends with a little ball that sits a couple inches up from the bottom of the paper towel roll is actually there to help you rip a sheet off with just one hand. If you have the paper towels facing the correct way and you rip it from the bottom up, you can use your original paper towel holder one-handed. And also, the quality of paper towel plays a huge role in using these. If you're using brawny or Viva towels, they're going to work much better because those towels are stronger and have better perforations so they rip off easier and they tend to not get that triangle on the bottom like yours did.

your spiral holder can do one handed, but it depends upon the direction the roll is mounted. (like the over-the-front vs down-the-back debate for toilet paper) look at the veggie bag dispensers at the grocery store. they have a rounded spike intended to break the dotted line between bags. the end of your spiral arm can serve the same purpose, but only if the towels are feeding the right direction.

I'm generally against single use gadgets figuring a common knife or something like that can do the job as well. But the PB peanut butter spreader seems to do something only a spatula would do.

Just bought the fridge monkey and the paper towel dispenser. I clicked on your links so hopefully you get a kick-back. I liked the knives but would rarely use them. If my kids were still little, I would probably use the heck out of that PB knife. Thanks for the vid and tips.

Know what works better at scraping out the peanut butter than the jar knife, and you probably already have it in your kitchen? A silicone baking spatula.

For the paper towel you originally had, I always put it and pull at an angle so the ball would hit the paper towel perforations and tear...

How to butter a cob corn: get a dinner roll, generously apply butter to roll, use roll to butter corn.

That paper towel order would be amazing if it was combined with that no spill cup tech. Especially if it had a wider beast so you could really just go to town on it

I have been through the wringer with paper towel holders. After trying 2 different types, I found that either the base was not heavy enough, or the roll just unraveled. My son bought me a Kamenstein paper towel holder for Christmas and I am in love. This particular type has an extremely heavy base with a rubber bottom that will NOT walk across my counter, a lip on the base that keeps the towels from unraveling and, best of all, a ratcheting center that allow me to easily get any size towel with one hand. I don't have to violently rip the towel to get it off....I can go super slow, and I get a perfect tear every time. You really need to try one James...remember 1. Kamenstein 2. Super HEAVY base and 3. Ratchet. Not all Kamenstein's are created equal. Oh and one more thing...the very top unscrews for when you are putting on a new roll - Makes it super secure! And it's only around $20. Love your videos! I need one of those peanut butter knives lol.

I'm curious if that fridge monkey would hold 7 thin cans (coke energy/red bull sized) on the bottom for a total pyramid of 28 cans

Ive always used a fork for the butter on the corn because of its shape

I love my OXO paper towel dispenser. I bought mine when they first came out. Love it.

I always get the small PB jars because I hate getting it on my hands when scraping the bottom. That's actually a fantastic idea. I'm just not sure if it's worth buying a separate utensil in my case. I'll say that I am definitely considering it.

The name 'fridge monkey' goes back to the brass monkey used on ships to stack cannonballs.

@areksoo 3 жыл бұрын

The fridge monkey seems like a good idea to stack tall items, but stuff like cans fit so much better up right. Or if you buy the 12 packs (6x2), the already fit nicely in the fridge.

The paper towel holder I have the one that fit on the bottom of the cabinet. Love it

The reason I always do the Jam (or Jelly for the heathens) first is because it comes off the knife with water in seconds. So I never get any in the PB.
