Leftovers

Bob Green has found an innovative way of storing his leftover food...

Image: Humpty


Some time back, after a demonstration of a wine bottle re-sealer, I was inspired to invent "The Humpty" egg economiser with patents pending throughout the Universe.

The concept is quite simple. In the event of one being unable to eat an entire boiled egg, quickly pop it into "The Humpty" and it will keep for weeks in the fridge. When you are ready, take it out and give it a quick blast in the microwave.

Voila! The remaining egg is restored to its original succulent state, in a matter of seconds.

How inventive are you? Is there anything you've invented that will make the world a better place?
