I saw this amazing utensil at a local Middle Eastern grocery store. I read the back. I debated. I was, truth be told, too embarrassed to purchase it. I mean... the store owners' English is pretty good, and they have to have read the back and know what it says. Right? But I couldn't stop thinking about the Magic Spade. So I came back with Joe (does this make it worse?), showed it to him, and, ah... screwed up my courage and bought the thing.

Er... no, not yet. I'm getting more use out of it as a conversational piece than as a "spade."
