What gifts that you received for Christmas this year are already in the trash?

For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.

Sometimes you want it pressed rather than chopped

Pestle and mortar? Smash it with a spoon?

Knife works better, since it's a flat surface. A spoon would push it to the side instead of crushing evenly. Mortar and pestle is overkill unless you've got a lot of garlic to press.
