What if I told you one of the most popular products on all of Amazon was a throw blanket designed to look like a flour tortilla? Would that surprise you? I know I was taken aback. I saw this picture of the “burritos wrap blanket” and immediately wrote it off as something utterly ridiculous:
And, of course, it is utterly ridiculous! But in this nonsensical, nihilistic age in which we live, apparently some people—a lot of people!—just want to escape the world and play-act Chipotle menu items. Nearly 40,000 customers have reviewed the burrito blanket, and a whopping 90% of them deemed it worthy of a perfect 5 out of 5 stars.
Not a Tex-Mex fan? Well, “mermaker” the seller of the burrito blanket, also sells blankets designed like waffles, chocolate chip cookies, and pizzas.
That’s all well and good, but can we get back to the burrito blanket photo for a moment? Take another look. Overshadowed by the 71-inch culinary “wrap” is the fact that the models in the picture are both wearing reindeer antlers. Anyone care to explain?
I am open to any theories our readers may have. The best I can come up with is that, as they were setting up the photoshoot, the marketing folks had the brilliant idea to lean into the absurdity of it the whole ordeal. After all, here we are talking about it. The other possibility is that, since this product is surely made in China, their grasp on the whole reindeer, Santa, Christmas thing is a bit tenuous.
Ultimately, it doesn’t matter. The burrito blanket may be silly, but as thousands and thousands of customers have indicated, it can be good to have a little silly in your life.

In 2022, Santa hats are out. Silly turkey hats are in.
I was on Amazon looking for things to do over Thanksgiving with relatives (eventually landing on the brand new game Christmas Categories) when I came across this:
My first thought was that it creates the perfect opportunity for someone in the family to recreate the classic Monica turkey head scene from Friends:
Then I realized that there are many ways you can have fun with the turkey hat Thanksgiving. When you play games, you can decide in advance that the loser has to wear the turkey hat. Or perhaps you can start a tradition that whoever carves the turkey each year gets to wear the turkey hat. The possibilities are endless!
No matter how you are spending the holiday this year (with funny turkey hat, or sans funny turkey hat), the We Know Products team wishes you a very happy Thanksgiving!
If you go on Amazon and search for “handheld massager,” you will find dozens and dozens of clones of the same $100 massage gun. My immediate reaction upon seeing this was that there is no longer any innovation in the massager industry. Instead of actually investing in R&D to come up with more advanced ways to help customers, massager companies seem content to copy one another and compete on price.
One company gives me hope. That company is NAIPO, a well-known massager brand whose stated mission is to help people all over the world “Find Well-being.” NAIPO’s latest handheld massager features a brand new design that provides added value for the user. While it is still a percussion massager, its sleek comfort-grip handle grants access to otherwise inaccessible areas of the body. It also features 5 interchangeable massager heads so that you are able to treat each acupuncture point with the best possible massage.
This attention to detail creates a truly customizable experience. After a workout or just a long day at work, you can choose from 5 different speed levels and 5 different working modes, from gentle relaxation to vigorous, deep-tissue massage. By virtue of the extended front grip, you can give exactly the right type of massage to previously neglected muscles all over your body.
A common complaint about percussion massagers is the noise level that can make it awkward or even impossible to use in public. The new NAIPO handheld massager is different. Unlike its competitors, it provides amazing results with only a single massage head. This has the twin effect of reducing noise levels and making it lighter and therefore less unwieldy, a huge plus especially for older users.
The NAIPO XF-5120 handheld massager will be available for purchase soon, and at $52.99 it is inarguably cheaper than similar products on the market. You get your very own either at NAIPO’s own storefront on naipocare.com or on Walmart.com. Stay tuned for more updates!
