While she used the squirt-able batter to make surprisingly good-tasting pancakes, our friends at <a href="http://groceryeats.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Grocery Eats</a> recently used their batter blaster to make <a href="http://groceryeats.com/2008/03/21/deep-fried-pancakes/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">deep-fried pancakes</a>. At first glance, these crispy pancakes look like delicious funnel cakes. But reading the fine print, one can see they are incredibly oily. I would probably eat one, <a href="http://yumsugar.com/tags/paula+deen" rel="nofollow">Paula Deen</a> would probably eat a bunch, but how about you?

There, on the top shelf, glinting like a jewel, was <a href="http://yumsugar.com/753625" >Organic Batter Blaster</a>. At first I thought, WHAT??? WHY IS THIS HERE? I thought Batter Blaster would end up as one of those weird products — like <a href="http://www.headon.com/" target="_blank">HeadOn</a> — that you hear about but never see. Then, once the shock wore off, I remembered that I was at Whole Foods, and that they have a pretty high <span class="inline left"><img src="http://images.teamsugar.com/files/users/1/15259/46_2007/IMG_4893.preview.JPG" alt="" title="" class="image preview outline right" width="213"></span>standard when it comes to products they sell. So I did what every other foodie would have done: I picked up a can and put it in my cart.</p> <p>Let me say right now, this product is surprisingly good. I was highly skeptical, and a bit worried by it, however, in the end it won me over. The batter itself oozes out of the can — I was expecting more of a high-powered spray like whip cream — and is a little difficult to shape, but not impossible. The flavor is like your standard fluffy pancake, only a tad sweeter. I've definitely had much, much worse at diners across America. </p> <p>Would I buy this product again? Probably not, however I could see where it would come in handy. In just a few short minutes, we were eating our fill of pancakes. If I were a hungover college student or a busy mom, and just wanted to have decent tasting pancakes for myself or my brood, then it would definitely make sense. The ingredient list didn't look too weird — the first two ingredients are filtered water and organic wheat flour — they were super simple to make, and as the checkout guy at Whole Foods said, "Hey, sometimes you just want one pancake."</p> <p>Have you seen Batter Blaster at your store? If so, will you end up trying it?</p> <p><p> <div id=mask-90938 class=mask style='float:left;width:75px;height:75px;overflow:hidden;background:#FFF;margin:0px 3px 3px 0px;border:0px solid

"fantastic" new product called <a href="http://www.batterblaster.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Batter Blaster</a>. Instead of whipping up your own pancake batter, or even using the just add water kind, you just shake, point, blast and cook. I don't know about you guys, but I think this is a bit ridiculous. It's like squeeze cheese, but with pancakes.
