I buy sunflower seeds that are already shelled. As I feed these into my mouth, I am always spilling them everywhere around myself; floor, desk, lap, etc. I suppose I could use a spoon, but how about packaging them in a cardboard, funnel-shaped box with a tip to mouth dispenser? There could be a
small divider that sections off just a mouthful to prevent too much from pouring into ones mouth. The bottom would be flat, and the funnel could be pyramidal, making it easy to grip.

Like an optic (as used for spirit
measures)
but for things like seeds? Or or one of
those sugar dispensers that you get in
cafés? ...bit simply engineered into a
box and therefore disposable with the
box. (Would also work for nuts, of all
kinds, raisins etc). |
|
|
The only trouble I see is people choking
on the nuts, raisins or seeds so
dispensed ar they tip their heads back
and accidentally inhale. |
|
|
I guess I should have added a box of gerbils to clean up after myself! |

This would be a great attachment for my grape feeder, which also fans, kisses, and says nice things. |

If you take that "just a mouthful" funnel, and instead of draining it from the bottom, just invert it over/in your mouth.... well, isn't that a spoon? |
|
|
[+] but good idea, as "pinching" squirts them around, spoon would be tooooo dorky, and damn good annos (esp. by miasere) |
|
|
Yes, I love all the annos. True, [soph] spoon way tooo dorky and ooooooo [Shz] kisses and says nice things?
yummmmmmm! |

I have this same problem with my nuts... err.. umm.. i mean.. aww.. skip it. Anyhow I like it. I am always spilling my favorite snacks in the car while driving. Raisins, peanuts, sunflower seeds, etc. My mom always scolded me for "drinking" the nuts out of the container telling me that I will choke. So even if I pour them in my hand, its still worth it to me. |
