🏴☠️ I Wasted 3 Hours Shopping for a Blender
And Felt Like an Idiot

Every review sounded fake.
One post said it was the supreme blender ever.
The next one called it a fire hazard.
I was about to give up and pick the cheapest one because reading 50 opinions to obtain a kitchen appliance felt insane.
That’s when I found something that completely changed how I decide what’s worth my time and what belongs in the trash.
