Mega Peeler

Sure, any old peeler will handle a carrot but what about a mango or a papaya, or butternut squash or those pumped–up mega–zucchini like the one pictured below that people bring in to work every Monday morning all summer long after a weekend in the garden?

I remember some of them being bigger than a football.

That's an awful lot of territory to cover with a 2"–wide blade.

Time to upgrade to peeling 21st–century style.

From the website:

Even large produce like mangos, butternut squash and papayas are no match for this peeler, which features a supersharp ceramic blade a full 5" wide.

This lightweight tool also makes efficient work of shaving hard cheeses or chocolate as well as shredding cabbage.

Angled to provide optimal leverage, the noncorrosive blade won’t alter food flavors and retains its sharp edge ten times longer than steel.

Dishwasher–safe.

10" long.

As I was looking at this tool I got to thinking: what would it be like if you put a battery in the handle and made the world's first vibrating kitchen peeler?

But why stop there?

You could start multiplying blades and pretty soon you'd have the Gillette Cold Fusion™ Über–Peeler/Razor: Five vibrating 5"–long ceramic blades to both peel your fruits and vegetables and shave with, each task accomplished with a single sweep.

w00t!
