We Love Fridays: The Obol Cereal Bowl

Posted by Alexandra C. | Friday March 16, 2012

This We Love Friday, we're about to offer a solution to a problem that's too long plagued us all: soggy cereal. This item is called the Obol, the Never-Soggy Cereal Bowl, it's US$19.99 and in my opinion, worth every penny.

Why yes, you are seeing that bowl correctly. It has two compartments, one for the cereal and one for your milk. Only, and here's the really genius part, there is a little slide for your cereal to be gently poured in slowly to the milk. Therefore, you take your cereal at the spoonful and it's never soggy! I'm a big cereal eater so this bowl is perfect for me.

This is one of those products where the design is so simple and yet, so clever and you hit yourself when you see it saying, 'now, why didn't I think of that?". I just can't get over the awesomeness of this product, seriously. On an unrelated note and just so you chicks know, my birthday is in August (hint hint, nudge, nudge).

Have you guys ever seen something so ingenious? What's your favourite simple but oh-so-smart product?
