Don’t you want to hack your way to a better life? We certainly do. That’s why we spend hours online trying to find a hack that streamlines the process of being alive. This week we tackle the issue of fingering your protein powder to find its loose scoop. This isn’t a problem so much as it’s an annoyance to get protein powder (or whatever powder you use) all over your fingers. *Cough* We’re talking about you, grown dude who drinks Kool-Aid instead of water, OH YEA. However, you don’t need to let everyone know you’ve got a problem with the Kool-Aid by never staining the tips of your fingers red, ever again. At least you won’t with this genius shortcut for storing the scoop that comes with your powdered drinks.

What You’ll Need
- Fresh Container Of Unopened Powdered Drink
- Sanitizing wipe
- Sharp knife
The easiest way to do this is by pulling out an existing scoop for the powder drink you’re going to use. Take the lid off the powder and put it aside. Across the unopened freshness seal, eyeball the length of the scoop against the diameter of the unopened container. Without pulling open the aluminum, pull the scoop towards one half of the freshness seal and then slice a star-shaped hole into the lid about the size of the scoop. Next, take your knife and cut along the mouth of your scoop so that there’s enough room for you to scoop out powder. Finally, place the scoop into its new home. Add the lid, and say goodbye to the mess.

That said, like a real American hero, it’s likely you’ll lose the scoop like you always do and then end up using a random spoon to measure. And if that works for you, congrats! You might be the only person on earth who thinks that’s a genius shortcut, but only your opinion counts if it keeps you happy.
