Review: My Fingers vs. Your Fingers Posted by Brendan on Sunday, August 31 @ 03:00:00 PDT
 Seen here completing a field test recently to complete the article... fun, tasty and totally painless. |
Let's talk chew toys for a minute. There are so many on the market and there's something to be said for tradition, though I'm not going to go into a lengthy discussion right now about all the virtues of natural products compared to synthetic. That's a big debate on its own. Let's just talk instead about the oldest and best of all chew toys: fingers.
Fingers have a lot of benefits:
Portable,
Available,
Washable,
Chewy on the outside, crunchy on the inside,
Often salty,
Warm,
And perpetually on hand… heh heh, on hand, get it?
Now let's compare the different fingers available:
My fingers:
- Most available, conveniently located
- Best-fit sizing
- Less hazardous nail situation
- Softest
Your fingers:
- Indestructible, chomp as I may
- More texture
- Totally painless,br>
- More social./li>
Plastic hand:; (pictured below)
- Noisy
- Crunchy
- Easily forgotten at home
- Sharper edges
- Slippery when wet
So for tops in convenience, I'd say gobble your own digits. For durability and comfort, however, there's just no choice like someone else's hands. Fortunately, this isn't an either/or choice. My best and final advice is to keep your options open.

Plastic hands? Oh no, none for me thanks. Between the noise and the inconvenience, this really ain't the way to go.
