I bought these tongs to use to strain tea bags because I couldn't find anything else suitable in a plastic material. Although not ideal, they do the job. Have to hold close to the bottom of the tongs to effectively squeeze the tea bag. However, much better than stainless steel tongs which are hard to clean and stain easily. These I just wash under hot water.

We love these Duck Toaster Tongs. They are safe to use for all the family. Great for lifting hot toast out of your toaster. Best thing is no more burnt fingers.

These were such a laugh – BUT I bought them for my Mum and my Sister who both have trouble with their hands. With arthritis and very thin skin, so burns are a danger. With the tongs they are great and make you smile when you use them as well.
