Pass or fail? B.O.B. the bottle opening cutting board

First off: Don’t get B.o.B confused with B.O.B. One is Georgian hip-hip producer Bobby Ray Simmons Jr. The other is the “Bottle Opener Board,” the first ever cutting board with a built-in bottle opener (an idea on Kickstarter right now).

We could argue the merits of each BOB — B.o.B’s Strange Clouds album is one of the best of 2012 (full of grand lyrics, great pathos and an audacious rap/pop mix), while B.O.B. is a unique approach to opening your craft beer AND cutting perfect garnishes with just one tool. Granted, B.o.B automatically gets a pass, but B.O.B, let’s look at the facts first.

B.O.B Features and Benefits:

• Bottle opener and cutting board in one
• Travel size: great for people on the go
• Standard size: perfect for your home or patio
• Made of sustainable bamboo
• Bamboo is stronger than most hardwoods
• Naturally Antimicrobial helps prevent food contamination
• Works excellently as a serving platter
• The ultimate conversation starter
• A unique party favor or gift idea (Father’s Day, anyone?)
• A complement for any outdoor activity
• A must have for grilling, campers and lounging

We say, pass!

In the future B.O.B will be available in an assortment of colors, as for now we cannot make B.O.B a reality without Kickstarter’s support, just our way of saying thanks.”
