Getting food stuck onto your knife blade can be annoying enough to hinder even the most professional chefs, but if you use the Glide Blade Cleaner, you no longer need to let this get in your way

I would love one of these old fashioned apple corers and peelers, especially for when I get given a ton of windfalls.

  but would I use it?

Got one of those. Have I ever used it ? No

Mind, I did buy it thinking OH could use it now he is blind.

Best thing for de-hulling strawberries (they don`tpull out like they used to do they ? ) is a triangular ended apple corer. makes quick work.

Have you seen those little strawberry hullers?  They don't grip the hull as well as your fingers do, they're useless!!

I bought one that was supposed to be for tomatoes.  Totally useless for tomatoes but brilliant on strawberries! LOL

I bought one of those Ed, got real excited about using it...opened the bag up and the handle had been broken off they're made from cheap metal and there wasn't any way OH could have mended it. I did get my money back but I never bothered to order another one. Sure would have come in handy that though.

you mean what they call a Lancashire peeler dont' you 10phizz? they're brilliant those things, I couldn't be without mine, but I must admit I never thought of using it to hull strawberries
