Still pouring it in with pre-orders on the entrepreneur a little curious goods.
NipNap, as her company is called, sells, namely the so-called chips-cutlery. The product is designed as a small, sustainable træpincet, and the purpose of the so-called NipNaps is to get greasy chipsfingre to life.

“We are in the small thousands. It is not what this is about. It is just mega cool, that people want to support the business. I think that several have been aware of the cleanliness and bacteria these days, and though it is not how it is, NipNap speaks to, contributes product to the cleanliness.”
