****** - Verified Buyer

I'll be totally honest here that this was not a completely sober purchase. It created enormous hilarity when it arrived. Nobody knew what it was for. The packaging was solely in Japanese, which didn't help us figure it out. We named him Flat Albert, and he's adorable. The kids tried it as a frisbee but it was a flop (see what I did there?). He was a pretty terrible mask as well, due to no eye holes. I eventually decided it was a cover for a dish in the microwave to prevent splatter, and that is how we use it. It's the perfect size to cover a cereal or soup bowl. I've washed it over and over in the dishwasher with zero ill effect. No signs of staining so far. Flat Albert is a welcome addition to our home!I'm a little surprised to come review it and see pictures of it IN a pot of food boiling away, and I'm now even more confused and amused about the situation. Flat Albert, what are you for??? Why would anyone set a flat pig in a boiling pot of stew? Is it to prevent boil over? Huh. And there's multiple sizes? Maybe Flat Albert needs a buddy or partner, and maybe I need a pig tutorial to understand their use, but I have zero regrets about my purchase.
