Trongs Prep and Eating Utensil Burgundy 6-Pair Pack

I've been a 911 Operator for 8+ years. Anyone who has worked a similar job knows that breaks are not guaranteed. At my current agency, we don't get a break at all. We have to eat any meals at our desks while continuing to work, and therefore most people can't/shouldn't eat things that you can't eat with a fork. Sticky fingers means sticky keyboard, mouse, other keyboard, other mouse, radio console, third keyboard, yet another mouse if you have to answer a call in the middle of eating.Well not anymore. Despite me getting teased a bit for looking a little silly having these on one hand... I am most certainly the only person in the room eating wings, ribs, chips, and anything else you can think of because all I have to do when the phone rings is set my trong down on a paper towel and I'm ready to work. It sits upright when not being used so you can pick it right back up with one hand when you're ready for noms again. Completely one-handed operation so there's no risk of getting the other hand dirty. They wash just fine in the sink, and dry just as easily with a paper towel.I would recommend them to anyone in this line of work, or anything similar where you want to eat but need to be able to stop eating quickly without having to worry about washing or wiping your hands first. My coworkers call them my "Tactical Dispatch Claws", and I just smile back as I eat my chicken wings.

My father has Parkinson's Disease and has a lot of trouble balancing food on a fork. These are perfect for things like salad. The little spikes at the end of each finger grip food securely and are not too big so he can get the food into his mouth before releasing it. They fit well onto his fingers and don't side off when he is trying to maneuver them to get the food. They definitely makes life easier.

I've been wanting some of these since I first seen them on one of those invention TV shows years ago. Finally decided to order some while I was ordering some other kitchen goodies.Used them for the first time tonight while eating some baby back ribs. They work great. No messy fingers!The plastic at the joint area is pretty thin so I'm not sure how long they will last but since they are reasonably low priced it won't be that big of a deal to replace them.

I use them when I am prepping food, especially raw meats. Instead of touching and prepping meat, then having to wash my hands before touching anything else in the kitchen, I just use the Trongs. If you cook in layers or are trying to prepare several dishes so they all come out at same time, it's nice not having to wash my hands while cooking and going from dish, to dish, to dish. It also works better than tongs as you can really grip the meat and anything else with the claws. Flexible and Form-fitting for big and small hands, they are nice to use on anything that could get your fingers dirty.

I bought these because my work was having a hot wings potluck and I did not want to deal with a messy keyboard. They work amazingly, and now i keep them at work all the time. Since I've bought them I've also used them for hot fries, and cheesy popcorn. My keyboard stays much neater now. They work exactly as described, and if you have to set them down they stand up on their tips, ready to be picked back up without hassle.

I thought these were a great idea, as I hate hate HATE getting chicken goo under my fingernails when eating wings, fried chicken, etc. You have to get a firm grip with these against the food, otherwise they'll slip right off your fingers. If the indentations were deeper, it would be a big improvement. All in all, I think they're way overpriced, and enough of a hassle to use that I probably won't bother most of the time.

I LOVE THESE. Hot wings are my weekly "junk food night" go to. I HATE how messy my fingers get. These are a little difficult to fully maneuver, but ultimately they're simple and they work. My fiance makes fun of me every time and I am completely ok with it because I have clean fingers

I love the Trongs. I use them the most when I am handling fresh chicken and pork. They were not that great for holding corn on the cob but that doesn't matter that much to me. I have given a couple of them away to friends and the feedback has been good.
