I own one, but mostly because I had a phase of getting into speciality honey and was eating honey every day during that time. It's really the optimal tool for the job of getting honey out of a jar and onto your toast while also being easy to clean.
Also, please for the love of God stop buying shitty honey that comes in a bear shaped jar. Go to your local farmers market and pay what you think is way too much money for locally produced honey. Honey where quality really matters and a little bit of really good honey is better than a lot of cheap honey.
Eh... I have one and use it.
What are you monsters using, a spoon?! /s
FWIW I also have a butter knife, a saucer, 3 graters... I mean nobody needs any of that, you can survive with knives and forks but if you do cook frequently, good tools help IMHO.
I have one ! You actually need one for pure honey in jars as metal changes its properties
Just squeeze the little plastic bear and the honey spurts out the top of its head
Really, my dad raised bees and we had them all the time. I thought everyone did.
Right there next to the poop knife.
I'm a ~4yr amateur apiarist (US based, but not one of the dumb ones.. depending). These are actually great for serving our raw honey. It pours off perfectly if you spin it.
Jars of honey you bought at the supermarket used to come with them.
my grandma had one! i'm pretty sure I tried to use it once
no idea what the damn thing is called tho
Honey Dipper.
As long as you spin it (along the axis of the handle), the honey stays on the stick and doesn't drip all over everything. When you stop spinning, it drips all over your food.
It's a niche tool but 11/10 at its one job.
Check out this fucking neanderthal, doesn't even have a Syrup Schlorper.
Ribbed for her pleasure
I have at least 3 of these. They're hardly rare. I think it's just you.
I've wondered the same as OP and never saw one in real life.
Probably it's a regional thing, like how in some countries (as I recently discovered) they don't know what a cheese slicer is and just butcher cheese with a knife.
I should save this comments section for when I need examples of why social media should be banned. A ton of people being dicks to each other over whether they use a honey dripper or a teaspoon.
Oh it's called a honey dripper? This guy called it a syrup schlorper.
How many schmeckles does a schlorper cost nowadays anyway?
You keep slowly rotating it as you move it from the honey to whatever you’re going to put the honey in so the viscous liquid essentially “orbits” this thing instead of dripping onto your countertop. Then when over the target you stop rotating and let it pour off.
So once upon a time, you actually got honey at the market replenishing your pot, rather than buying jars in the supermarket.
This thing was always in the pot, and you did not use a spoon to get your honey, it works better than a spoon and you just leave it in the pot.
Today americans probably bleach their jars, spoons and bees, but honey is surprisingly shelf stable, having a pot with a little hole with this little plunger sticking out is fine really.
Why do you feel they're better than a spoon?
Saw them a lot, the only time I used one it was black magic to me and I didn't understand hlx u must use it
I have a honey pot with one of those that somebody gave me as a gift.
I tried to use it one time to be fancy when I made biscuits, and put it in the middle of the table during dinner. At first people tried to use it, but it was such a fucking pain in the ass, eventually they just stopped trying to be nice about it used a spoon to get the honey bc wtf is the point?
Well it does keep the honey not dripping if rotated, and works nicely if the honey is applied to hot water (as if you don't, the honey will never leave those stripey grooves).
Yeah, but just look at those black levels.
Until reading the comments, I didn't know people actually owned these. I thought it was supposed to look like the stripes of a bee on a stick as a gimmick to sell. But according to the comments, it's designed that way so you can twirl it if your honey container is far away from where you want to spread the honey to keep from dripping everywhere.
I've never seen one of these in real life, whether at home or traveling. I've been to almost all 50 states and 10 other countries.
I own two of them. They are great for honey.
I'm guessing the people who don't use them aren't into honey. Like, maybe they have a little honey bear that's crusty in the back of their pantry.
Swizzler.
