8. Was that meant to be erotic?

He sure was impressed with the size of that banana and took his own sweet time peeling it.

I thought for a moment he'd changed his mind and was going to demo applying condoms, before he finally got to the slicer/dicer device.

(that HAD to be the inventor--lol)

9. So...even with one

arthritic hand, I could have peeled a banana, sliced it, washed the knife, and had the slices in my cereal before he was through picking hunks of banana out of his contraption.

PS...and I get to choose the thickness of the slices. Amazing!

5. Just what we need... Another circumcision thread.

6. My favorite review, by "Monkey" (of course):

"I have been biting into bananas like an animal for the last twenty years! Thank goodness the Hutzler Banana Slicer came along! Now if only someone will develop a poo flinger so I don't have to throw my feces at the wall with my bare hands . . ."

[llmart]

7. The description alone cracked me up.

"Slice your banana with one quick motion."

Tee hee.

[Arugula Latte]

10. "I got a little over zealous and tried slicing plantain with this,

and it was just a little bit too small for that class of fruit."

And another: "I am 53, so needless to say I am very experienced in banana slicing. I have to say that the Hutzler 571 is the standard that I will measure banana slicers by from now on. I will be giving these to all the 'special' people on my gift list this Christmas. We are truly blessed to be living in this age of endless technological wonder. I cannot imagine what my grandfather would have thought had he lived to see this."


I want to be friends with these people.
