Sometimes, you discover something that makes you say, ‘Huh, why didn’t I know about that sooner?’”

Prepare to have your mind blow, because that’s exactly what’s about to happen with this life-changing cereal storage trick.

Becky Holden McGhee discovered after 40 years that she’s been closing her cereal boxes all wrong (and apparently all of us have?).

Luckily, she shared her new-found knowledge with the internet with some helpful photos and a video. Just check it out yourself:

Um, OK, that’s freaking genius. She’s totally right — it’s super annoying when the cereal boxes just won’t close. Then you inevitably end up with stale cereal down the road.

This trick seems to solve both problems at once!

If you think cereal boxes are bad, don’t even get us started on fitted sheets. Luckily, someone’s figured out how to fold these neatly, too:

And how to properly fold a shirt in just a few seconds:

Or how to fold jeans to save space:

Dang, some people are seriously so creative. How do their brains come up with this stuff? Is it just inherent? A lot of trail and error?

Either way, we’re just glad they share their little tips and tricks with the rest of the world. Thanks, internet!

You Can Make 3D Car and Truck Pancakes for Breakfast

Racing frantically through breakfast every morning will be easier now with the help of little cars and trucks made out of waffles.

CucinaPro has come out with a cool new way to fuel your day–a waffle maker that turns your favorite pancake batter into little Hot Wheels looking waffles.

It works just like a normal, boring old waffle maker. Pour the batter into the non-stick molds and, then, vrooom! A plateful of fun that will wake you out of your Ford siesta.

After you pop them out of the garage–er, waffle maker–you’ll see seven different makes and models to butter and syrup.

As you can imagine, the appliance speedily sold out on Amazon where the Cars & Trucks Waffle Maker was listed for $42.95.

But don’t let that drive you away. Get on the list so you’ll be able to enter the expressway to morning fun as soon as it becomes available again.

I mean… what kid wouldn’t love this? Wait… what PERSON wouldn’t love this? These are insanely cool!

If cars aren’t your thing, you can also get a dinosaur maker. Either way, the reviews of both makers are excellent with some users advising cooking spray to ensure all the little shapes emerge perfectly.

Rumor has it the company tried to make a motorcycle waffle maker but the pancakes wouldn’t stay right side up. They were…two tired.

Okay, so that was horrible… but I want to see you do better. Tell me your favorite joke in the comments!

Check out This BBQ Grill That Looks Like a Star Wars AT-AT Walker

If you love Star Wars and you like barbecue, you’re about to see something life changing.

This AT-AT Walker is a real working BBQ grill.

Designed by Alex Dodson of Burned by Design (previously), this hand-welded, steel AT-AT Walker has a grill and cook shelf built right in its robot back.

The website says it is:

The new must have for the Star Wars fanatic!!! Designed using original movie blue prints, the iconic AT-AT Walker has been transformed in to the ultimate BBQ! This metal beast is bound to the talking point of every gathering.

Handcrafted in mild steel using 4mm precision cut laser profiles to capture that movie detailing.

The grills are removable and there’s also a coal rack to keep the charcoal elevated.

Even if you bizarrely have friends you want to feed that don’t know what an AT-AT Walker is, they would still be wowed by the design alone.

This is a showpiece for any backyard on Earth or in a galaxy that’s quite a ways off.

You could party like an Ewok with one of these grills, a few sizzling porg patties and some cold ones. Start clearing some space on your patio and make your guest list.

Summer’s looking like a new beginning for your ‘cue game.

Alright folks, now is the time to sound off! Would you want something THIS Star Wars’ themed in your life? How much would you pay for such a thing?

This Is When You Should Replace Your Nasty Kitchen Sponge

You know that gray lump of a sponge you use with detergent to clean your dishes in your sink? It might be time to toss it and replace it with a new one.

Pulling out a brand spanking new sponge every week will keep you from spreading bacteria and viruses all over your kitchen, including illness-causing germs such as E. coli, Salmonella, and maybe even the coronavirus that causes Covid-19.

But how dirty is your sponge? A study published in the July 2017 issue of Scientific Reports suggests that kitchen sponges can get more germ-y than toilets.

Report author Markus Egert, PhD, professor for microbiology and hygiene at Furtwangen University in Schwenningen, Germany, and a team of researchers, noted there were 362 different kinds of bacteria living inside kitchen sponges. They found approximately 5.5 trillion microscopic bugs per sponge.

If you would rather try to clean your sponge instead of replacing it every week or two, Egert suggests using a washing machine at 60° C (140° F), and using a bleach-containing, heavy-duty detergent.

Another acceptable way to clean a kitchen sponge is to lather it up with soap and flush it with water. Then put it in the microwave oven for two minutes. You’ll want it be wet so that it doesn’t start a fire in the microwave.

Store your sponge in a holder to dry out between uses and don’t use the same sponge for cleaning dishes and surfaces, especially outside of the kitchen, like in your bathroom.

Finally, if you really don’t like the idea of bacteria growing in your kitchen, use silicone brushes and scrubbers. Those don’t have the same kinds of germ friendly surfaces of your sponge. Or use microfiber washcloths and wash them in your washing machine on high heat after using.

Using a sponge around the kitchen can be convenient. But, for a safe and clean kitchen, be aware of how long you keep the same one by your sink. You may be spreading some pretty gross stuff around.

Let’s Head to Flavortown With Some Funny Guy Fieri Posts

I’m gonna go on the record here: I like Guy Fieri a lot. People like to poke fun at the famous chef and TV host, but I think his show is good and he seems like a very nice, positive guy who does a lot of good and brings a lot of happiness to people.

I think a lot of people just like to be haters about anything and everything.

So there.

And he’s really funny on social media as well!

Let’s dive into some posts from and about this food icon.

1. He’s once again…

Asking for FLAVOR!

2. You can’t unsee this.

He knows all…so don’t question him.

3. All tricked out like a video game.

Super Guy Fieri!

4. He’s jumping on this train.

Take a very close look…

5. Michael Scott-style.

That’s what she said!

6. Wayyyy beneath the ocean surface.

He’ll go anywhere that serves up the good stuff.

7. You have to go!

See, even Kermit knows what’s up.

8. Was there ever any doubt he’d be re-elected?

Four more years! At least…

9. Uh oh…look at this mash-up.

Possibly separated at birth?

10. Who wore it better?

The hair, I mean…

11. He’s out of this world!

Way into outer space!

12. Going way, way back.

Did you know that Fieri is also a scientist?

WE WERE ON A BREAK!

A post shared by Guy Fieri (@guyfieri) on

Did you like those memes!

I thought they were pretty darn funny, if I do say so myself.

Oh, by the way, if you needed some more reasons to like Mr. Fieri, he’s going to do a “Nacho Battle” with Bill Murray to raise money for charity and he’s also raising money for restaurant workers during this very difficult time for that industry. You can donate HERE!

Like I said, I’m a fan.

Tell us what you think of the Mayor of Flavortown in the comments!

Stay safe and healthy out there!
