The Banana Slicer Reviews meme centers on the Hutzler 571 Banana Slicer, a simple kitchen gadget that became an internet sensation due to its Amazon product page. Starting around 2011, users began posting incredibly elaborate, satirical, and dramatic reviews claiming the device solved impossible life problems, saved their marriages, or replaced complex surgical tools. It joined the ranks of the Three Wolf Moon shirt and sugar-free gummy bears as a 'review bomb' classic. The meme is typically used to mock unnecessary consumerism or to celebrate the absurdity of over-enthusiastic internet culture through high-stakes storytelling about a mundane plastic tool.
