Only in Japan: Potato Chip Hand

「ポテチの手」で手を汚さずにポテトチップスを食べられます。
Someone in Japan just came up with a new way to eat chips without you ever touching them, not making your greasy hands greasier.
If only Billy Mays was still with us. I can imagine his loud voice pitching the Potechi no Te, or the Potato Chip Hand:
(Cut to scene in black and white of people having a hard time thinking.)
Did this ever happen to you? You like eating chips, but your hands are full of germs. You wash your hands with soap for hours and hours, but eating those chips will just make your hands greasy, undoing all your hard work.
(Cut to Billy Mays, radiant and smiling.)
Hi! Billy Mays here with another great product. It’s the Potato Chip Hand and it will solve all of your grease problems.
(Billy shows the product with confidence to the camera in his strong left hand. Cut to various scenes showing the usage of the product.)
It’s a short stick that fits in your hand with a little plastic hand at the end. All you have to do, is to reach to a potato chip with your plastic hand, put it around the chip, and press the button on the stick to firmly grab the potato chip. And thanks to the No Touch Table System (NTTS), just put the chip into your mouth with the help of the stick, and it’s done. Enjoying hand-free potato chip snacking has never been easier.
Other similar devices will crush the chips into hundred pieces. But not this one! With its No Broken Clutch System (NBCS), the plastic fingers will put just enough pressure to hold the chip in place, without breaking it.
When you’re done, the Finger Easy Cleaning System (FECS) will make it easy to clean the Potato Chip Hand. Simply tap the button a few times to move the fingers, and you’re done!
The Potato Chip Hand is great for all occasions that requires you to eat potato chips! Plus, it has the Billy Mays warranty.
I don’t know how much it costs, but Billy Mays would probably sell it for $19.99, with a second one free. Besides, he sold the Gopher, which now feels like the big brother of this little plastic stick. I wonder if this tiny back scratcher will take on in Japan. It probably would in North America, where everyone is getting fat on chips.
The Potato Chip Hand. Only in Japan.
