the amaizing fork

When HapiFork first debuted at the Consumer Electronics Show in January, the brightly-colored, vibrating fork caused a stir, landing press coverage from all over the world, including a mention on The Colbert Report.
Basically, the fork vibrates if you eat too fast. Some folks thought the fork served a useful purpose -- getting users to eat more slowly -- while others thought it was just a novelty. It is a vibrating utensil, after all.
The folks at Hapilabs, the company behind HapiFork, say they're just glad people are talking about the fork at all because that means there's room for a conversation about the health problems associated with eating your food too fast.
Soon, Hapilabs will know for sure how many people want to join this conversation. The company launched its HapiFork's Kickstarter campaign today, offering the fork for $89, for early birds, and $99 thereafter. They want to raise $100,000.
That's a mighty expensive fork, but Hapilabs CEO Fabrice Boutain hopes people will see it's about supporting a case, not just a utensil.
