    They also can show arbitrary stuff, so it’s great for todos, family reminders, etc. We bought a chalkboard-like thing (wet chalk?), but a thin whiteboard would work too.

    My wife prefers using a tablet to cook since she can move it around (from the prep counter to next to the stove). I use my phone.

    We bought a new fridge recently, and while the smart features looked cool, I don’t trust them to get security updates, nor am I willing to pay a premium for cool features on a fridge that’s likely to have problems (Samsung and LG have the coolest features and the worst repair track records).

        Blackboard, but I guess it’s just a dry-erase with black background instead of white.

        I mistook it for this other thing or this thing my wife got before with these liquid chalk markers. The dry-erase blackboard is on our fridge, and this one is on our wall near our fridge.
