    Mandoline Reign

    Of course, the main purpose of this posting is to use the above headline, and for that I almost apologize. Still, I recently pulled my mandoline out from behind the waffle iron and ice cream maker--I don't know how it got lost in the cabinet-cave of neglected wedding gift appliances--and sliced up some cucumbers. It took about .25 seconds to shave the cuke down to a nub--approximately the same amount of time it took Google to search the pun "Mandoline Reign," which, yes, has been used, and usually in reference to something Ron Popeil made.

    I have one, love it. It comes out when I need to slice lots of something or need to make my slice real thin, and very consistent. This is another one of those gadgets, the wife said what do you need that for, can you slice with a knife, like I do, guess what, it came time to slice potato's I did 5lbs worth to her 2 potato's. Now she understands why, but does that stop her from making statements like that of course not. Only us foodies really understand, the need, the want, the desire, to prepare our food to perfection, with all the love we have to give.

    prepared with passion and served with love !

    I do not cook to live, but live to cook !

    I've got one, but it's a cheap one that really don't like. Blades aren't sharp enough, it's a poor design and just a PITA to use. There are a couple in Chef's that I'm looking at. Maybe I'll get lucky and one of them will go on sale.

    I like mine, but I admit I don't use it often.

    Don't have one and don't see the need for the things I do.
