‘Brie’ of good cheer! The Fondoodler is the ultimate gift for cheese lovers

Add as a preferred source on Google

What do you get the cheese lover on your Christmas list who has everything? The gift at the top of the list of best cheese-related gifts has got to be the Fondoodler, the “glue gun for cheese.” It’s like cheese in a can, but with more variety and sophistication.

It works just like a regular glue gun — stuff any kind of cheese you want to enjoy into the barrel and when you squeeze the trigger, out comes delicious gooey cheese. Squirt your favorite cheddar onto buttered crackers, or spicy pepper jack onto nachos. Instead of a gingerbread house this holiday season, build yourself a delicious cheese and cracker village. Why? Because you earned it.

The Fondoodler kit comes with everything you need to make the perfect melty cheese treat. It includes a cheese corer so that you can carve out the perfect sized tube of of your favorite cheese to use in your Fondoodler. The product is compatible with all varieties of cheese, although hard cheeses may be easiest to load into the barrel.image-grid-3

The Fondoodler is the product of Buzzfeed Product Labs. Buzzfeed is doing more than just showing us useless products that we need, they’re selling them to us now. Before they started the Product Lab, Buzzfeed’s commerce was mainly generated through affiliate links rather than actual retail products. The products they have already rolled out include the Homesick candle, which produces smells characteristic of various states in the U.S.

Tasty, the popular food channel run by Buzzfeed, already features at least one recipe that highlights the Fondoodler. So you know that all of your cheese loving friends will be all over this soon enough. You can order your own Fondoodler online for $25. Buzzfeed isn’t promising delivery by Christmas, but if you order now it will be shipped sometime in December.

I tried to parody the most absurd AI products, but the tech industry beat me to it
The joke was supposed to be that every household object gets cameras, AI insights, and a premium tier. Apparently, that’s now a business plan
Imaginary AI products

I wanted to invent an AI product so silly that no founder could turn it into a seed round.

It had to solve a problem nobody had, collect far more data than the problem deserved, and turn normal behavior into an insight that sounded vaguely disappointed in its owner. Somewhere around the third feature, it would ask for a subscription.

Fraimic’s E Ink art frame generates art from your voice and looks incredible doing it
Fraimic's AI art canvas is one of the most thoughtfully designed smart frames I've come across.
Indoors, Interior Design, Person

We’ve seen a lot of "smart art frames" at CES over the years. Most of them feel like glorified digital photo frames in turtlenecks. However, there’s one that feels genuinely different: Fraimic, and I say that as someone deeply skeptical of this category.

The pitch appears quite compelling at first. Speak a prompt into the device, and its built-in mic sends the command to OpenAI's GPT Image 2.0, which then generates full-color artwork that lands on a Spectra 6 E Ink display.
