I am the queen of useless kitchen utensils and gadgets. That vegetable spiralizer? I got it. That maze-shaped, all-edges brownie pan? I got it. Those Wolverine-esque, meat-shredding claws? I got them.  I don’t know what compels me to waste my money so frivolously on these plastic contraptions; I don’t even like to cook. Luckily for me, there is now a new generation of wasteful devices to help improve the takeout experience. Ever ordered a burrito and wondered, “How am I going to cut this in half?” Then you need the burrito guillotine! In a recent video, YouTuber jimmydiresta demonstrates how to build a burrito guillotine. Please, don't try this at home.
