That is not what's going on here.
Apparently, this is coming from Seattle Ultrasonics, and the blade vibrates at over 30,000 times a second, which allows it to move through food much easier.
Apparently, this vibrating technology means that the knife is a lot sharper than its physical edge, which makes things like slicing vegetables, meat, bread a lot easier for cooks.
And according to the company, the vibrations are so subtle that you can't see the blade move, hear it, or feel anything in the handle.
It is a $400 knife and it's currently available for pre-order.
So many thoughts on this, like somehow, and I may, might be a pessimist, but I'm like, if you can't see it or hear it or feel it, like, is it actually vibrating or is this just a $400 knife?
Um, and then pessimism aside, how much sharper could that possibly be?
How much faster could it possibly cut?
Is it a fun idea to feel like you have an ultrasonic knife vibrating at 3000 times a second?
Yeah, that sounds pretty fun.
But realistically, how useful is it?
I probably shouldn't weigh in.
I'm not a cook, but I don't see so much use for it.
Okay, the final one that I thought was very interesting technology, but a very strange use case is a candy company.
It is a musical lollipop that plays ice spice in your head.
Basically, it's coming from Lollipop Star.
And of course, we have musical toothbrushes.
So why can't we have music playing lollipops, I guess?
Basically, what they do is they have music that is delivered through bone conduction.
