    I LIVE for fresh pineapple... and clean it the old fashioned way...
    Has anyone used one of these???

    I've seen both plastic versions (near the pineapple in the produce section) and metal ones (yet to run into one of those). Are they worth having?

    I ordered one of these several years ago after seeing it on QVC or some such place. I haven't a clue how they made it work for TV because in real life it was a MESS!!

    I am SUCH a gadget person... tech gadgets, kitchen gadgets, you name it, I want it.

    I love my apple corer, espeically for making pies.
    I have a Shark Steam Mop, which is awesome for my baby, who now loves to throw food on the floor.
    I also have a Chop Wizard, which is handy.

    The Garlic Zoom looks sweet... I love fresh garlic, so I gotta get me one of those.

    I'm still debating on getting a Magic Bullet... anyone have one and want to weigh in on it??

    I had one, ended up giving it away because for me it wasn't practical.
    I just use a hand held emulsifier instead.


    I love the chop wizard!!!! I use it all the time!

    I have one and never use it...I tried it for making salsa, and it never seemed to fully mix everything together...so the pieces at the bottom were liquified, and the ingredients toward the top were still whole.

    I find that this gadget produces a lot less pineapple than you would get if you just use a knife to chop it up the old fashioned way.

    That one's off the list then... I gotta have my pineapple...all of it!

    I have this one and it is quite easy to use and saves a lot of time! When I tried it for the first time though, the rings didn't come out as in the picture you show. Still, it took less than a minute to use and is quite neat!
