Garligator

The jaws line up perfectly to crush a clove in one squeeze, and it’s so easy to rinse that I actually look forward to using it. My kitchen counter feels a little more fun now, and it does the job without any fuss.

It’s honestly the most fun I’ve had in the kitchen in ages—the croc’s mouth grips the garlic clove perfectly and the hinge pops it right open. Cleanup’s a bit fiddly with the teeth, but the whimsy makes up for it.

My countertop needed a little personality and this guy delivers every time I cook. The crocodile design actually makes the press easy to grip, which I wasn't expecting from something so playful. Mincing garlic feels more like a tiny game now.
