This Chef'n Bananza Banana Slicer has some odd reviews on Amazon.

  • Aeron

    I went from crazed laughter to immense terror reading from left to right.

  • Doomstalk

    Just look at it.

  • thaum

    What, and no exhortation to just look at the reviews?

      inoright? boingboing is slipping. i’m heading off to boingboib for some real reading.

      • Mark_Frauenfelder

        Boingboib is even scarier than the banana slicer!

  • Snig

    My boing boing habit has caused Amazon to take notice, and yesterday sent me spam, just nonchalantly asking if I happen to be interested in the Hutzler 571 Banana Slicer.

    Someone needs to check the reviews for cigar clipper thingys.

  • Eark_the_Bunny

    Boing, Boing is wonderful.  With all the knowledge I have gained reading this wonderful, wonderful blog, I was able to make my very own Ukelele playing banana unicorn using my 3D printer and a homemade DNA synthesizer.  It was wonderful!

      Is it steampunk styled?  If not, back to the shop for you.

      • Eark_the_Bunny

         Of course it is steampunk styled with lots of leather and bronze pipes.  It is also steam powered with a DIY steam generator that burns old copies of BOING, BOING magazine.  Plus I planted my own organic banana tree farm on the roof of my house, right next to my DIY solar cell array.  I will tell you more about in my next book.

    Recommended similar product content on the page listed a “stuffed fox”. Definitely something rather kooky about this product…

  • zume

    Great… after looking at the product and reading the reviews now amazon’s algorithms think that I’m interested and every site I go to (like Slate) has adds for a banana slicer.

    Keeping my legs crossed in Arlington.

    If you like wacky reviews for weird products, you’ll probably like the reviews for this wonderful recipe for ice cubes. http://www.food.com/recipe/ice-cubes-420398

      Who’s going to buy Pippa Middleton’s book if you can get the kind of information online?

      I was just about to post about those, but you beat me to it. Good job!

      I think Amazon needs to vet user images a little closer ;)

    There are, also, the classic Tuscan Whole Milk 1 Gallon 128 oz reviews: http://www.amazon.com/Tuscan-Whole-Milk-Gallon-128/dp/B00032G1S0

    I suspect this may have been inspired by http://thedevilspanties.com/archives/8070 – or vice versa
