R2-D2, you're our only hope … for a spiced meal

sw_r2d2_peppermill.jpg

R2-D2 is now starring in his most important role ever, a peppermill. The projector, soy sauce dispenser and mailboxes have nothing on R2's latest job, which is too keep your food nice and seasoned with pepper.

This R2-D2 isn't some run-of-the-mill pepper shaker, either. He (she?) is a full-blown pepper grinding mill. Pop some fresh pepper, spin R2's head and out comes fresh pepper from his posterior-area. If R2 were a human, I could make a joke about him pooping out pepper, but alas, he is an android and unfortunately androids don't poop. The R2-D2 peppermill is available for $20.

If you guys had offered this as a pair including a C3PO salt shaker you could probably sell a bunch of them. Looks to me like you missed an opportunity.

OK, so maybe I'm revealing my inner nerd but an android is "an automaton in the form of a human being." I think referring to R2 as an android is a bit of a stretch.

Hey! Isn't that a Dalek's job??

That's great and all, but where's the Spice Weasel?
