You could just buy a utensil crock and never have to worry about it again.
Also box graters go in a cabinet, if you don't have cabinet space and need to keep it in a drawer then get a flat grater (it's not like you use the other sides of the box grater anyway).
The apartment I bought had cabinets with fake, decorative drawers on them. Except it turned out that one of those drawers wasn't decorative. It was just stuck.
Inside there was a full set of silverware (as in literal silver) from the 60's complete with the original receipt. It's worth thousands of dollars. I guess whoever lived there before me was in no condition to pack and the people who packed didn't know about the silver...
Gonna pull extra hard on my fake drawers tonight.
Psh when I open random stuck drawers all I find is jars of teeth
Bro eating good tonight
Expert mode is the tongs that were locked closed when they went into the drawer, and have now expanded 3x the size they should be
That's the entire reason I use a wine bucket to house big utensils. I used a wide thin grill spatula and all of my patience opening that drawer.
The bucket is slightly bigger around and slightly taller than a cookie jar. It works great.
We use a combination of a tall vase for the big top heavy stuff and an old Jaegermeister ice bucket that came free with something decades ago. Nestled within each other. Holds all of the bigger cooking utensils like spatulas, spoons, tongs, etc.
use another set of tongs to squeeze them shut while pulling
Look at money man over here. Showing off his two tongs.
Why is it, when something stucks, it is always you three?
Ty be fair, sometimes it's the upside-down spatula.
you'd think i'd have learned by now not to put my potato masher in the drawer. but you'd be wrong if you thought that.
That's uncanny. I thought I was the only one misplacing my German stick grenades like that.
Please refer to them by their proper german name stikkenboomens.
*Stielhandgranate, but yes it would be a much better potato masher than this sad mesh wire.
Don't forget the tongs that's missing the lock thing and somehow ends up standing up wide open.
I threw an entire draw of utensils across the room because of one of those fuckers.
Mine is pineapple corer and unnecessarily large can opener
Praise Anoia

One of ours gets stuck on the 3 different sets of measuring cups. Why do we have 3 full sets? No one knows!
Because eventually you'll break it lose one of the cups and then have 3 incomplete sets that will hopefully provide a full set between them.
Because having one means you have to wash that pile of dishes at the bottom of the sink.
I don't think "audio off" was ever a reason.
Ineffective ass potato masher.
What would you recommend for mashing ass-potatoes?
Hand mixer, like a true redneck
For ass potatoes you need a ricer.
Kinda depends how you like your potatoes. I generally like them a little lumpy, but I think the twelve or so of us in the lumpy crew nationwide lose that fight every Thanksgiving.
But! The ineffective ass potato masher does a real good job of breaking up ground meat in to super tiny bits in the pan for stuff like Taco meat.
And how else would you suggest we pay tribute to Anoia?
PRAISE ANOIA!
Oh merciful Anoia, guard our kitchens and protect our drawers!
Forgot the upside down spatula.
A fuckin set of tongs that has some latching mechanism that doesn’t work so they stay permanently agape.
If it wasn’t so true
I simply don't put these in a drawer.
Mine is a collection of antique dental instruments.
I won't tell you why, but I will say that it puts the lotion on its skin.
it got in it can get out
This really grates my cheese
For me it's usually letting anyone else put dishes away. Before that, the ¼, ½, ⅓, and 1 cup measure set but I fixed it by putting them upside down.
C'mon man. You forgot half a dozen mismatched batteries, some tongs, and 3 different bottle openers for some reason.
This post has made me ask, why don't we just put this shit in a different place?
Kitchen is to small
