Jun 9 2009USB Microwave Is World's Smallest, For Beans

The Heinz Beanzawave is being billed as the world's smallest microwave and measures a scant 7.4 inches tall by 6.2 inches wide and 5.9 inches deep. It's equally suited for heating a can of beans/soup at your desk or frying your nuts so you can't have children.
The mini microwave is being developed as a partner to Heinz Snap Pots, baked beans in single-serving containers. The Snap Pots, available in the U.K., fit perfectly into the Beanzawave. But the $160 device will only be released commercially if consumer feedback is positive and if component prices drop in the near future.
Well you can count me on board. I'M ON A BOAT! Just kidding, I wish I was though. No, right now I'm just laying in bed topless braiding my penises. Now where'd I put that scrunchie?

Thanks to scottsc, who cooks his beans at work the old fashioned way: on a campfire in the boardroom.

IF it cooked everything that would be office in my cube, also @3 you have no friends.

Don't macbook and macbook pro's nowadays have a black band around the screen? Then what is this laptop, it's aluminium so it's not the white edition.
:(
7. White - June 9, 2009 10:19 AM
I do rather think if this cooks some decent stuff, maybe boil water or something for instant noodles and that. Maybe even bacon and eggs to go with the beans this could be cool.
8. Daisy - June 9, 2009 10:19 AM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Bach Down where Max and his friends were sitting around a campfire eating beans and farting like crazy.

@5
Neither do you, firstard. Now BE GONE FROM TEH GEEK PAGES!

@9 I just like busting peoples balls for the Firstard thing, but it's cool.
11. LSDiesel - June 9, 2009 10:33 AM
@6, the USB ports are also on the left side, so the microwave in the picture is not really even plugged in to the computer.
Uh-oh, scientific explanation. My iPhone app just informed me of another unicorn's death. Damn. I'm a murderer.
One more thing though. The way the monitor is connected to the keyboard also doesn't match the style for the new MacBook / MacBook pro. I hate to agree with daisy, but this is clearly a photoshop job.
KILLING SPREE

FAIL!! This post fails on so many levels. Who the hell cares!?
This is just like when Chevy Chase took his family on vacation to Las Vegas. They met up with some family and found out they didn't have a grill or a microwave to cook food with. They had to improvise and realized that nuclear radiation does some spectacular things these days and were able to cook up some deliciousness on a rock.
After dinner, they went to the casinos and lost the family fortune on a game of chance trying to guess a number.

funny that it doesnt tell you how many watts it actually uses
but a lithium ion version would be good for camping and fishing
23. sokka - June 9, 2009 11:06 AM

26. STOMPY - June 9, 2009 11:15 AM
@22
Last I checked a USB port is a few watts at 5VDC (500mA), versus the 700-1000 Watts needed to heat my soup in two minutes at home... Good lord this should never be a real product...
27. mike literous - June 9, 2009 11:23 AM
beans beans good for your heart
the more you eat the more you fart
the more your fart the better you feel
so lets have beans for ever meal.

28. McCracken - June 9, 2009 11:25 AM
Are you braiding your penises like a boss?
This is just stupid. If the person that sat next to me bought one, I would it out the window. I don't want me space to smell like beans and farts all day. And all it does is heat beans because it to small to heat anything else.....lame.

"Heinz claims that snacks can be warmed in under a minute thanks to intense heating action from a combination of cell phone and radio frequencies."
Yummy.

Good soldiers or outdoor camping food!
38. Nero - June 9, 2009 4:40 PM
How about one of these for our hut? Finally warm food!
39. Jaded Icon - June 9, 2009 4:55 PM
What's crazy is that they only have ONE food product for it. JUST ONE! I mean, if it only micros beans then call it a damn bean warmer! Also, why beans? Is that an U.K. thing? Kind of how we have ramen here in the states and the Russians have borsch?
40. mungs - June 9, 2009 9:46 PM
Braiding your penises with a scrunchie....that's pretty much the greatest thing I've ever read on this site.
41. arun - June 10, 2009 1:35 AM
I love this Blog
42. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - June 10, 2009 2:34 AM
I just had to come back, seeing as I check every page I post a comment on to see if anybody responded. Yup, I know what your thinking... Your right. I have no life and no friends and have nothing better to do with my life and I can prove it at @ 3 and @ 5 and @ looking @ myself in the morning every time I look at the computer monitor before I comment... and even more on my next comment.
43. eat bean - June 10, 2009 6:28 AM
Yes! best invention ever! Fuk you other inventors, a new wave this could start, since most people are fat as fuk'n all hell, we could start doctoring chickens and turkeys making them smaller so we could fit them in this machine. Since not everyone eats only beans....like i don
44. eat bean - June 10, 2009 6:28 AM
do!
45. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - June 10, 2009 7:48 AM
@42
Gee, CHRIS SALVADOR, I really did hurt your feelings. So much so, that you have to imposterize me on every thread. Slandering my good name. To bad you do a terrible job at it. I'm work wasting time at work while you're(holy shit I'm good at using the correct form of that homonym) at home trying really hard to insult me. That's right. I'm getting payed to be snarky. Who's the loser now?
46. Jaded Icon - June 10, 2009 8:01 AM
@ 45
Lol, good thing I'm too lame to impersonate.....Ha ha.......*sniff* (crying).
47. rachel - June 10, 2009 10:22 AM
omg. how is tt possible... :S
48. Gordon "Fücking" Shumway - June 10, 2009 11:03 PM
@ 45
CHRIS SALVADOR you must be out of your mind impersonating an impersonator! I actually have a job I work as a pizza delivery boy, but... you see it's my pizza delivery company! So while your sitting at your job hoping your boss doesn't catch you because your his bitch, I'm out here working on making pizza's you see on my compaq laptop in a park as I watch under age children.
But on the side note, I might actually consider buying one of these USB microwavable mechanisms, it might work and cook the pepperoni faster if only I can collect enough food stamps... O, shnappss, I hope they accept them?!
p.s.s. I knew you would look and comment your to much of an arrogant low-life not to. You care to much on what people you've never even met say think about you, you go about making a persona thinking your quick witted and smart, hah. Your Not. Do something with your life.. hah, get a real job.. I bet 5 Bills you have a shitty car to match your shitty lifestyle. Get up.
