Oh, I forgot to mention. I just put that link up because it was

the first one I came across when I did a search, but you can buy

them at most grociery stores for WAYYYYYY cheaper than that one.

We have like four, all for different thicknesses of cheese (we

are obviously not a vegan household, my FIL and DH are both

quesadilla addicts and love to have SLICED cheese on them

instead of grated) and I have never paid more than 5-10$ for

them...definately not 50!!!

I was also thinking that to dice them real small I could quarter

a block of tofu, then put them in those egg slicers like this

one:

flowing now!!!

Hey, Jenni... it works great for Idahos, zukes, etc... but I got it

(my inlaws gave it to me for Christmas) for my beloved sweet potato

fries and raw sweet potato is too hard! However, if I partially cook

the sweet potatoes first they get softer, enough to put through this.

There are two sizes of blades, too. I love it.

 

Now that I've been getting so much practice at peeling apples, I'm

gonna sell my apple peeler/corer/slicer dohickey, though.

PS I think they were a big thing in the 50s?; my MIL remembers having

one.
