Video: How To Cut Food... With Dental Floss

We've all fallen victim to cutting with dull-bladed knives. It can be difficult to slice common ingredients with precision, especially when the equipment isn't up to par. But what if the proper equipment were right under your nose the entire time? Or, say, in your bathroom cabinet?

Courtesy of Food Beast comes this unorthodox method of cutting foods such as cheese, cake and burritos. We've yet to try it out ourselves but the video looks pretty darn convincing. So grab some dental floss on your way home from work this evening – just make sure it's unscented – and start carving sexy slivers of cheese like never before. Oh, and take our advice and skip the last 10 gross seconds of the video. Who even uses floss for their teeth, anyway?
