Angry Mama Microwave Cleaner
The microwave is a pain to clean. Enter: Angry Mama, a steam cleaning device perfect for those who need to let off their own steam. You just remove Mama’s hair and head from her body, add white vinegar and water, then microwave. The steam comes out of Mama’s head, softening the crud and making for easy cleaning.
$9.99. The Cook’s Warehouse, multiple locations. 866-890-5962, cookswarehouse.com.

Cavi-art Black Seaweed Flavor Vegan Caviar
Got a vegetarian friend? Wrap up a jar of Cavi-art. This vegan caviar made from seaweed has the taste, consistency and appearance of real beluga caviar. Just a dab will ramp up an hors d'oeuvre tray filled with crudités and crostini, or give a fine finish to heftier fare like bean burgers, loaded baked potatoes and winter-warming bisques.
$9.95 for 3.5-ounce jar. Amazon.com.
