This week, we learn that parsnips and thongs can be washed together with ultrasonics, we discover a titanium rolling-pin that doubles as a hip replacement, and our very own Welsh samurai warrior instructs us in the traditional ancient art of overspending on cutlery.

Plus, in Innovation Time Machine, we pay homage to the fondue set, and a culinary age when beiger was always better.
