Pineapple cutters

Have you ever seen one in the grocery store and wondered if it really worked?
I have been tempted for along time to buy one and try it.
I finally gave in, and guess what?
I love it!
Check this out...
Cut the top off.
Place cutter on top and begin to twist handle.
When you've reached the bottom, gently pull up.
Wa-la!
A beautifully cut pineapple.

This looks amazing!! I have never seen one. We'd eat more pineapple if we had one of these.

I have never seen one either. We too would eat more if we had one. Where did you get this at?

That is intresting. P.chef just came out with a pineapple cutter, it is similiar to the apple wedger but bigger. I think it is 18.00. I was going to get it but this looks really slick. How much and where did you find it? Very cool. Pineapple is so good for you.

you know, i've always done the "martha" technique for this. BUT- i have ALWAYS wanted one of those. is it really, really worth it?!? we LOVE pineapple! except, the acid can almost start to strip away the lining of my mouth when i eat too much of it! :) (I know, i know, gross...)

I think it's worth it! It's easy, it does a good job of only taking the skin. If you are really good at it, you could keep the pineapple shell and serve fruit out of it.

I can't remember exactly what I paid, I think it was in the $12- $15 range. I got it at HyVee by the fresh pineapples.
