Swiss Army Measuring Cups finally add some manliness to cooking

Dan Seitz Contributing Writer, Tech

We know, we know, you don’t fit a steak into a measuring cup before tossing it on a grill. But, as hard as this may be to believe, cooking is actually a lot of fun provided you’re not cooking something lame. It’s really a bit like playing with a chemistry set, albeit with fewer opportunities for explosions. But the problem is A) finding cooking tools that don’t suck and B) finding cooking tools that don’t suck that also don’t make you look like a total wuss.

Thankfully, somebody has our back, at least with measuring cups.

Measuring cups are, speaking as somebody who cooks on a regular basis, a massive pain in the ass. Inevitably, you lose one of the smaller ones, and the best you’re going to do in terms of not looking like a dork is getting them in navy blue.

Which is where this Swiss Army Measuring Cup comes in. While not quite as versatile as the Swiss Army Knife, it will at least make keeping the damn things in one place a lot easier. Also, it looks cool, which will help considerably if you’re forced by circumstances and significant others to make something unmanly, like quiche.

In short, it’s one of the few kitchen gadgets out there that are genuinely useful and won’t make you feel like an ass. Well, at least until you set something on fire.
