Describing the object as extremely heavy and with no markings, with a very narrow hole on its top, this person was eager to learn what the object, which he named a “scoopy doodad,”  was and whether it was something useful or just a piece of junk.

According to the online community, the classic Sunbeam Mixmaster came with a juicer attachment, a bowl that could attach to the top of the mixer and this strange object was the spout the juice would pour out of. The wire part holding a small strainer is there to filter out the pulp.
