Here in Seattle, whenever we have barbecues (yes, make a rain joke, but I had one on the beach a week ago), we tend to have vegetarians present. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Some of my best friends are vegetarians. It’s just that we have to be careful in parsing out the grill space, so no one gets pig matter on their birdseed burger. And it doesn’t always work out. This amazing invention, possibly the greatest of all time, eliminates that problem entirely. Veggies A1 through C18! What can I say, I guess I just Excel at cooking outdoors!
Okay, that was uncalled-for. But puns are just in my nature, boys and grills.
Unfortunately, it’s just a concept right now. But you better believe we’ll let you know the second this thing goes real. Of course, you could always fabricate one. Of course, then you’d be cooking with brass.

I’ve never understood why some vegetarian’s freak out if their stuff just touches meat. I mean so what! Doesn’t make the cow any more dead!
Let me preface this by saying I am certainly not a vegetarian. Life without bacon to me is just inconceivable. Now that said, I know a few vegans who see eating meat as barbaric and repulsive, I have one particular friend who sees eating a steak no worse that cannibalism.
My point is not to say that vegetarians are crazy (although plenty are) but that we have to realize to a lot of them meat is physically repulsive and therefore meat touching their food would probably ruin an otherwise good meal.
Actually, the last thing I want to think about is the office when at a barbeque, so unfortunately every time I had to look at the thing I would burst out screaming and crying. But at least I would be organized.

That’s so funny, can think of at least 3 people (in the UK) who I could buy this for!
The new word for reading online instead of on paper is Skrunk
