For the breakfast sandwich maker...I'd bring it to hotels that only have a microwave and a mini-fridge and no breakfast or kitchen. 7 minutes for non gas station breakfast food sounds like a win in my books!!!😄

[@BandGeekECHS]

Right? Great for over the road truckers, and honestly mom's too. Some of us don't have time or energy for cooking or dishes.

[@sarahdixon5280]

I have the double cooker. I set it up while we were getting ready for my wedding. Everyone could make a sandwich between hair and makeup. Nobody had to actually cook and everyonegot just what they wanted. Its also excellent for kids or when you want to be doing other stuff

The banana thingy would be so good for frozen banana pops. Fill them then take off the peel, dip it in chocolate and put sprinkles (or sliced almonds, whatever you like) on top and freeze them. So good

Imagine... Frozen chocolate covered peanut butter filled bananas w/ sprinkles or whatever else. Good for parties maybe?

[@alexiskinkead8601]

I will say I was gifted that sandwich maker when I was living by myself in college and it made my morning super efficient. I would used sliced ham or lunch meat in my sandwich so you didn't need to heat it up. It also made way less mess in my kitchen than pulling out the toaster, and skillet. I only stopped using it because I got tired of egg sandwiches for breakfast everyday.

[@brandiverstraete1684]

Congrats on the new niece and nephew so excited for everyone

[@JenGrant71711]

Slice and freeze them! They are amazing snacks with a good source of balanced nutrients. Great for diabetics and those with dietary restrictions.

[@bananaloca8085]

Thank you so much for trying our Banana Loca!! You filled it perfectly! And yes, you're right on the point, to help kids have a mess free snack (instead of sliced bananas getting suction cupped to the plate and it being slippery to put peanut butter on top)! You're now officially part of the banana bunch!!

[@trumpetjames1]

I’ve done some deserts in which I peel one side of the banana scoop a little out and put peanut butter and chocolate chips, put the skin back on and wrap in foil and throw in the oven or on the grill if you’re camping. Heat until the chocolate is melted. super easy and super yummy. This could be another way of doing that!

[@susanmiller6023]

I'd use the banana thing to fill pastries, cakes, doughnuts, brioche and croissants, carrots, zucchini, cucumber, peppers, sausages, jacket potato and anything that could form some kind of pocket. The breakfast thing is only useful for people who are getting ready for work in the morning and don't have time to wash pots before work. The coaster thing is OK I guess, but I'd forget about it in no time at all. Have you seen your new nephew and niece yet?

[@hajera786]

I think the sandwich maker is more so for people who want to just put it in there and then have time to finish getting ready or do other things, otherwise you'd have to stay at the stove to cook everything yourself. I guess this "frees up" some time for you in the morning if you're in a rush and have other things to do before heading out but still want to have homemade breakfast instead of grabbing something on the way.

[@rohinisinghnath39]

This is the best day ever! Colleen gave birth and Rachel just posted a new video!

[@michaelapowers5954]

Honestly I would use the banana thing for my husbands grandpa with advanced dementia. I give him peanut butter bananas but he gets so messy that I’ve given up on the PB but this would make it so much easier to give him protein in his banana snack

[@smokeyybearhugs9092]

I have the same breakfast sandwich maker-y thing. It is fantastic for chaos mornings. I plug it up and turn it on. Go wake up kids. Come back when it's ready, add all ingredients. Go back and make sure kids are moving, help them, fix their lunches, etc. Then boom. Breakfast Sammy. I love that I don't have to pay attention to it like I would if I were cooking the things on the stove. Set it and forget it. I got it for Christmas like 2017 I think. I didn't use it at first, because I too thought it was pointless. Just had to find out where it fit in to my life. Now I can't go back to life without it.

[@ceekay3143]

Salad spinners are so much more effective and easier than whatever that sling thing was. It actually gives a place for the water etc to escape into? I even kinda use the inner basket as a strainer when I rinse the leaves before putting them in there.

[@madisondouglas3299]

Honestly I love the sandwich maker. Mind you I dont use frozen meat. Just throw everything in the maker and its done with little effort. The sandwich is done at the same time as my tea typically

[@HEB2004]

The little sandwich maker would probably be good for an office without a complete kitchen setup.

[@terrybarnes8386]

I have the Hamilton Beach Breakfast Sandwich Maker and it works splendid! I think for the sake of the video, you should've had it already pre-heated and use ready-to-eat meats like turkey, ham, Canadian bacon, pre-cooked bacon, etc. since those just have to reheated.

[@mochi3760]

[@savannahellis8888]

The breakfast sandwich thing is neat if you're getting ready in the morning and dont have a ton of time but still wanna eat. You can get it ready while making your coffee and then set it up with your ingredients and then do what you did and go do your makeup while waiting for it to cook. That way you don't have to stand there and physically cook it. You can multitask. And the banana tjing would be cool if you were going to make chocolate covered peanut butter banana slices but instead of having to spread peanut butter on the little slices before dipping in chocolate, you fill it the cut your slices then dip/toss in chocolate. Or it could be a fun option for chocolate covered frozen bananas on a stick! Idk how well it would stay on the stick tho. You would probably have to fill it, then slice it, put it on a stick, and freeze it to harden the peanut butter before dipping it and freezing it again

[@appropriateinput]

Rachel: **yells** 😂🤣😘😝

[@Stprincess]

Rachel, you could make some amazing frozen dog treats with that banana filler. Fill it with plain yogurt or peanut butter, freeze, and good to go

[@VN71042]

have you tried deep fried banana? try using the banana contraption for cucumber and fill it with hummus?

I'm crying over peanut butter! My grandpa was VP of Best Foods Inc. in Canada and they sold SKIPPY PEANUT BUTTER!!!!! We don't have skippy in Canada anymore and seeing that jar took me back to when I was a kid in the 90s & all the grandkids had jean jackets with skippy guy on the back. It was actually embroidered too! he was a great man! Congrats on the twins Auntie Rach ... did you & JoJo dance outside the hospital window? Hehe. Oxo

[@hkandm4s23]

[@thedduck]

Oh you know what, that contraption is perfect for making chocolate stuffed banana fritters.

[@soonertwin4]

I have the double sandwich maker and I use it every single morning. My twin has the single (I think the one you tested) and the double is better. I am GF/DF, so I use GF toast and cut off the corners. It works like a charm! Before I make my sandwich, I also make my baby a poached egg essentially with it and cut it up and he loves it! Multiple uses, super fast once you get used to it, and way less clean up. I just throw the 2 pieces in the dishwasher and rinse the main piece quickly. Also, mine doesn't preheat and has a setting to adjust time and beeps when done. The double is better for sure!

[@kelseyhaddix2403]

I will say I have the sandwich maker the same exact thing, and it is a lifesaver before school when I don’t have time to make something for breakfast even though it takes like 10 minutes, for me personally it takes me 30 minutes to make a breakfast sandwich lol. Because for some reason I can’t make a breakfast dance quick at all and it’s really helpful if you hate runny yolk, because it cooks it thoroughly through more than a pan would
