11. Slicing and dicing onions don't just make us leak tears, it can also leave a strong stench on our hands. However, this aluminum bar, which is shaped like a bar of soap, can be used to remove the onion smell (or of garlic) from your hands. When you rub this object on your hands after cutting onions, the molecules in the steel bind with the smelly sulfur smell on your hands, and thus the molecules along with the smell are transferred to the metal and off from your hands.

12. This is an egg piercer that helps keep eggs from cracking while boiling. Pretty helpful, right?
