Salter Nutri-Weigh and Go
Salter Nutri-Weigh & Go scale is a great little portable nutrition scale. To be clear, it is a bit large to be carried in all but the largest purses, but it fits quite nicely in a backpack. A hard plastic shell folds over the platform, display and buttons when not in use, and the whole unit slips into a fitted cloth bag for extra protection. Even better, the Salter Nutri-Weigh & Go will record data for seven days. You can calculate the nutritional value of any food item, and if you wish to look at it again later, just enter the item and the database will have it displayed. Amazing, isn’t it?
Perfect for: Foodie Geeks Approx Price: $78.99
Wii Fit Plus
The purchase of this gift should only be done by those in long-term relationships. I don’t know how anyone would navigate the minefield of unrealistic body image expectations and truckloads of chocolate that women are expected to combat this holiday season. Sadly, the Wii Fit Plus will not magically make your significant other (or you for that matter) thinner or more easily able to resist tasty food, but it's a giant leap in the right direction.
Trying to fill the space left by the demise of the flip phones, Sony has slowly trotted out a number of different Bloggie models that are aimed at capturing the moment via a dedicated pocket camcorder normally as good as, if not slightly better than, your mobile phone. Imagine all those dear memories with your loved ones captured in 3-D!
While that is a market that is constantly under pressure from phone cameras merely getting better, Sony hopes that you are more likely to opt for their Sony Bloggie 3D, a pocket camcorder that has two lenses on the back so you can record 3D video and capture 3D stills when you’re out and about, because it’s something that only a handful of phones currently offer. What better way to say you care than in three dimensions?
