Every kitchen needs tongs - long and short!  These 9” tongs are great for removing food from the air fryer, turning veggies on a sheet pan in the oven, lifting the edge of a pizza crust to see how browned it has gotten, or tossing a salad.  The grip is comfortable, and the tong tips are wide enough to use for serving.  I have several pairs; some for the house and some in the RV.
