In a tiny apartment kitchen, space is almost as valuable as the ingredients and cooking tool themselves. A good way to save space is by investing in contraptions that fold or collapse for easy storage.
This folding colander isn't a novel idea, as we've seen collapsible kitchenware in the form of measuring cups and funnels before. The one pictured is from Sbarro. Yes, that Sbarro, the one that peddles stale-by-heat-lamp pizza to you in mall food courts. Rather than a round colander that collapses like an accordion, this one opens and closes like a book. It costs $14.95, but I found another source that sells what looks to be the exact same thing for half the price.
