This one is so much faster and easier.00
Amaze! Amaze! Amaze! But I guess for my 3-4 pineapples a year I'll stick with my big, sharp knife.
Would like to see how mangoes 🥭 are cut when sold on the streets en masse. I avoid them in NYC worried about salmonella but maybe they are safe to eat.
He's a one man industry preparing for selling on the streets. I expect they use the cut offs and sell them in packs too. Good invention for that.
Wait until to see mechanical commercial potato peelers.
looks like carpal tunnel to me
Cool
I want one.
Splendid. I was wondering how he was going to handle the pips or whatever tf they're called.
Honestly it doesn't look like it saves that much time.
But it leaves all the div--oh. Well, that right there is complete mastery.
🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️ Is it because in 99.99% of cases we peel them in single numbers a day using *checks OP wording* ‘cavemen’ tools like a kitchen knife, where the use of a chunky, commercial-scale pineapple peeler rig is as nonsensical as a domestic kitchen apple-peeler gadget? Also, video has ‘caveman’ action 🙄🤦🏻
Lazy? You try cutting 75 pineapples a day
Yeah, I'm gonna run out and buy one of those bitches for the three whole pineapples I get in a year!
hand labor is never "lazy"
Very gratifying! 🍍 😋
Because we’re cavemen?
Takes up too much square footage in anyone’s kitchen.
Nice
What do they do with the seeds?
What a dumb fucking post.
"we" aren't peeling pineapples, because "we" don't buy them.
Ronco or Popeil?
First post I've ever saved on here.
because a good cook can do it faster by hand.
It's a pineapple lathe!
"Honey! Our lives just improved dramatically, I bought a pineapple lathe!"
Save so much pineapple!
Why would you call that lazy? Looks pretty labor intensive to me.
Where is gadget sold?
That is wasteful.
Next best thing that works like a charm:
I always wondered what the purpose of a pineapple was in nature... not sure it has one, but they sure taste great if we could only make eating them easier... oh year, here's something
That occupies a lot of kitchen real estate, especially countertop. I peel them in virtually the same amount of time using a chef's knife and a cutting board...maybe 6 times/year. Might be good for a commercial operation. All others would do better learning proper knife skills.
I mean, it's still a set of knives, dude
That’s exactly how I ‘butcher’ my ‘freshly caught’ pineapple with just a knife, but I waste a fair bit more fruit because I can’t be arsed to cut narrower and shallower cuts to then deal with those little fibrous divots all over it.
Seconds lol
That’s not how I peel a caveman either
I also got a haircut from them!
Yeah, I’d be loosing fingers if I tried that!
Because personally, I never have more than one pineapple at a time to peel, I don't have any room in my kitchen for another gadget, and I suspect that the time required to clean that thing will outweigh the time saved by not just using a knife.
I dunno, man, any cavemen who came across the wild precursors of modern pineapple cultivars were looking at a fruit much difference in size shape appearance and spininess than what modern or even pre-Columbian-exchange 15th century South American agriculture produced!
Wow. Wastes a lot of flesh.
Need this!
Pineapple 🤤
Ah, something else to gather large amounts of dust in my closet.
👍
I woukd eat so many more pineapples.
Install in stores that sell pineapples like coffee grinders. youtube.com/shorts/M6ePj...
Wasting about half the edible parts there. No, your food does not need to all be soft and easily chewed like baby food.
I can disassemble a pineapple in about 90 seconds with a kitchen knife And I don't have to clean up that thing That's why
You peel your pineapples? 🤯
Used to have one of those old fashioned crank peelers (they still sell them) that could peel AND core an apple on a rotisserie spike. 🍎 The day someone sells one for pineapples (without defacing it to get the pockmarks out), I will shove money down their throat. 🍍😋
that would cause multiple fatalities and lawsuits in the US. we're not the best
Seconds? No this looks labor intensive. It may yield the maximum fruit available per fruit. Look at this Korean pineapple processing plant. Not like that primitive Chinese tool. www.youtube.com/shorts/5XHHm...
Mesmerizing!
Like cavemen....🤣🤣🤣
Ready for pizza...?
The right tools for the job.
I never thought of them being rows on a spiral.
This is such a staple food in our house. What a great way to cut it.🍍🍍🍍🍍💖☮️🕉️💟☯️
Spiral cut is wasteful.
Pineapple-O-Matic !!
You know you can eat the skin. This dude is removing a lot of the best part of the pineapple.
It's a bit bulky for the average kitchen.
That actually looks less efficient than using a big sharp knife, especially as you have to go back in to fully remove all of it
Their proctologists’ records suggest cavemen swallowed pineapples whole
Yum-yum!
In Mauritius, vendors on the beach achieve that with one knife and about 10 seconds.
I can feel my tongue shrivel at the site of that delicious pineapple.
Why does he remove the core? That’s the best bit.
Why are we still eating pineapples?
Brilliant
I don't have the specialized knives but that's how I do it. The trouble is finding a decent pineapple at the grocery.
Thanks Bee...quite clever...but...it is a lot of equipment to clean & store....
It looks so pretty all spirally.
If I peeled more than 2 pineapples per year I might look into this.
I would, I love pineapple, but have limited counter space.
people saying this is wasteful dont know what Tepache is and that is sad for them
“Lazy”!? That’s still so much work. Working smarter not harder isn’t lazy.
I have a stainless-steel device with two ring saws that cores and removes the outer skin at the same time. I bought it in Hawaii.
In the US, we’d dip that pineapple in batter, deep fat fry it, coat it in chocolate and sell at the county fair as “healthy.”
Slick.
the "i know better" crowd is already here in full force, i see.
Looks like it takes a bunch of skill as well.
Paging @elemjay.bsky.social
Pineapples are pretty bountiful. Especially since that looks like it's in Southeast Asia. We got plenty of pineapples here. And bigger problems to handle then a little bit of compostable material.
🤔 Would it be bad to try this wondrous machine out with a wheel of Tilsiter 🧀?
But does it make julienne fries? I'm not buying it unless it makes julienne fries. Well, maybe if they throw in a vinyl car top repair kit. Those are always useful.
I can do what he did with that gadget, without the gadget, just as fast. Pass.
Sadly googling "forked pineapple chisel" is returning limited results.
When there’s a need someone figures it out! Ingenious!
those are some great tools
Worst technique I've seen yet. Barely anything left !
Wizardry
A kitchen knife on a bread board is easily just as fast and less cleaning.
There is a corkscrew like gadget you screw into a pineapple and pull out perfect rings of pineapple slices. Much smaller than the gadget in this video.
"No unitaskers in the kitchen"--Alton Brown
I miss picking pineapples. One of my fav jobs during HS
Damn, that looks good
That thing is as big as my kitchen.
It's just a lathe.
My corer is so much faster and it will cube the rings.
i don't own a spinny pineapple thing
I lived in the Phillipines over 50 years ago. I could buy a pineapple for about 5 cent and for another 3 cent the vendor would peel it for you and bag it. He used a machete and it looked just like that when he was done
But the divot-reaming part cuts away a lot of fruit.
@zyxomma.bsky.social can we get one?
It’s the counter space.
It looks like it would only take a slight bit of additional engineering to make the spinny device also do the coring.
Because if you want the occasional pineapple, even one or two a week, who has the room to store this thing and every other professional gadget out there.
Where do you store this machine, it is huge?’
Could find the credit for this video: Foodie Mama 👍
Or use one of these:
Awesome!
Not everyone has a kitchen counter big enough to accommodate that piece of equipment.
I learnt how to peel a pineapple with a knife on a NHS management course. Pineapples hold no fear for me.
Is there a German word for envy of the sharpness of another persons knives?
Never seen fruit that had to be mounted on a lathe before.
There are even quicker gadgets wherey ou can just cut the top and bottom off, and screw it in. Removes the core and leaves you with nice slices.
Wasteful
That machine plus the manual step probably lose about 10% of the flesh though.
Because owning a bulky unitasker you will use maybe 2 times a year is not a good idea?
