I remember the pot holder makers. They  were standard for Christmas -kids liked Chia Pets- hated the poholder things (work not play)

 Chia Pets - Bean sprouts - Salad :P

Of course the one I got wouldn't sprout, it just sat there, after about a month I decided it was dead .....

Up until I read the patent, I thought that crenalations of the tongue was an STD symptom. But seriously folks, if you had to mark out a lot of mortice and tenons on barn beams daily, this was a step forward. For furniture, isn't it a bit too big?
