Heat-Sensitive Coffee Mug Tells You When It's Safe to Drink

Proving yet again that we haven't run out of good ideas (as a species), the folks at Charles and Marie (we'll call them "Charles and Marie") have released one of the most logical items we've seen in some time. Like Sunday mornings, it's easy: The mug turns from off to on when filled with hot liquid, and then goes back to off when your beverage is drinkable again.
25 bucks is a bit on the pricey side for a coffee mug, but for the perpetual tongue burners among you (you know who you are), it's easily worth the investment in your taste buds.
Assuming it works.

Orientals figured this out thousands of years ago. They do not have handles on their tea/coffee cup. If the cup is to hot to pick up then it is to hot to drink.

Ah so, imhof714...have cast iron cups myself. Brand yourself once and you learn! Oh well, great idea and wish I'd thought of it.

If you have $25 to spend on a cup and NEED that cup to tell you when the beverage is safe to drink, you have more troubles than the potential for a burned tongue. We should never criticize the people who come up with these crazy things, only the people that pay for them.
