Is the bottle-licker one of those long, thin spatulate thingies for extracting the last from bottles? Or is it a device which actually licks bottles for you (I'm not sure I need one of those...)

I too am curious about the bottle licker.

Wow! I need a bottle-licker for the honey jar!

Ours can't handle very thick honey, but it does runnier things very well. For honey I tend to make tea in the honey jar, then pour it into a mug.
