You know what simplicity in a kitchen tool is? A pizza cutter. It's a wheel, it cuts your pizza. It really doesn't need to have other uses (though you can use it for other things) and there's really no better way to cut a pizza.
Which is exactly why they had to build a better mousetrap.
The good folks at Van Vacter have created a dual wheel pizza cutter.
Invented by a surgeon, this precision tool cuts through pizza in just one pass. Large wheel’s Slicing Slots™ separate hot molten cheese, followed by a smaller finishing wheel that cuts through any remaining cheese or crust. Comfort-grip plastic handle. Dishwasher safe. 8¾" long.
I'm sorry, a surgeon you say? This is for pizza, right?
It's big selling point (apart from the "invented by a surgeon" factor) appears to be that it cuts through pizza in just one pass.
Um, so does my single wheeled pizza cutter. Apparently the big wheel on this one sucks so bad that it doesn't cut through everything so a second wheel was added. Couldn't they have just made the first wheel a little sharper?
Here's something else that pisses me off. Using scissors to cut pizza? I already covered the specialty pizza cutting scissors in a previous post but this picture is so stupid. If you were actually using scissors to cut pizza you (1) wouldn't hold them at that angle and (2) wouldn't have hands not covered in red sauce and being burned by molten cheese.

We love our Papa Murphy's pizza cutter. It cuts in one pass if you really want it to.
Sure, pizza scissors are dumb. But I'll have a slice of that lady's Pizza Margherita please.
Also, Jillynn wants me to tell you that she thinks the lettuce knife was originally invented as a giveaway for Tupperware ladies so they could lure bored housewives into buying more crap.
I have a plastic pizza cutter that looks like it was designed by your friendly Klingon Tupperware Saleslady. It sucks.
