Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Norpro Grip-Ez Granny Fork
Customer Review: Very Close To Foley
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm loving it!! The Norpro Grip-EZ Granny Fork is a perfect substitution for the Foley, might even be a little better in some areas. First, let me say, if you want a Foley, head over to Ebay and be prepared to drop $30.00. You can still get one in decent shape. The Norpro though, takes what was so ingenious about the Foley and cranks it up a notch or two. While I love my old standby, I usually only pull it out once a year. It's tradition and a collectors item but it won't hold up to daily use any longer. The Norpro is another story. The sturdy rubber handle will take a beating and the business end of Granny will complete the job in no time at all. The tines on the Granny are a little wider but not so much so to alter your finished product. You can see from my picture (marks on Granny are light reflections)the difference is minimal. Granny is happy in the dishwasher and I believe no cook should be without one. It's the one kitchen item you didn't know you needed and will love. I'm getting another for myself and a few more for friends. This time of year, lots of bakers give mixes for the receiver to bake off at home. Try substituting a Granny Fork for the typical wooden spoon that often gets tied to the packaging. You'll make a huge impression and it will end up being a favorite for anyone lucky enough to receive it. Norpro was thinking outside the box on this one and it shows. One of the best not so "new" kitchen items out there and it's less than $7.00. Can't be beat!!
Description of Norpro Grip-Ez Granny Fork
18/10 Stainless steel forkThis is one of those tools that can be a little tricky to describe. Not really a fork, but not a spoon either, it acts like both. Norpro's curved granny fork can be used for stirring, blending, and mixing--and for transferring food to your plate or bowl. Made of 18/10 stainless steel with a soft, comfortable Santoprene handle that is nonslip and ergonomic, the granny fork stirs and scoops pasta, veggies, or anything that benefits from liquid draining through its six sharp tines. --Doree Armstrong
