Many years ago, my acquaintance received this unusual wooden thing as a wedding present. It was handed by a distant relative, who smiled mysteriously and did not explain anything. The object was little, with wooden prongs; it resembled a cross between a comb and a holder for something unknown. At first glance, it appeared to be purely decorative.
To avoid appearing disrespectful, my friend thanked the sender and carefully stored the gift in the closet. Years passed, and the mystery object was relocated from shelf to shelf, apartment to apartment, causing bewilderment. He even tried to guess its purpose: an earring holder? A mini-brush dryer? Is this an art object?

It turned out to be a cheese holder. An strange but extremely useful kitchen accessory: it allows you to cut and serve cheese without touching it with your hands. Convenient, sanitary, and even with a twist. But there’s one question that even the internet can’t answer: why would someone present such a thing at a wedding without explaining what it is?
