Hutzler Banana Slicer

The comments indicate it could even rival The Mountain Three Wolf Moon Short Sleeve Tee.

I don’t eat bananas for the same reason I don’t throw my poo around, I’m evolved.

I like my butter knife best actually, it cuts butter and butter is delicious.

My Kabar is actually sharper than all my Mother's kitchen knives, so I end up using it for things like slicing bananas and cutting pizza. You don't need fancy labor-saving devices to be a good chef

Ah, Amazon comments... reminds me of the comments here (probably NSFW): http://www.amazon.co.uk/Veet-Men-Hair-Removal-Creme/dp/B000KKNQBK

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

For decades I have been trying to come up with an ideal way to slice a banana. "Use a knife!" they say. Well...my parole officer won't allow me to be around knives. "Shoot it with a gun!" Background check...HELLO! I had to resort to carefully attempt to slice those bananas with my bare hands. 99.9% of the time, I would get so frustrated that I just ended up squishing the fruit in my hands and throwing it against the wall in anger. Then, after a fit of banana-induced rage, my parole officer introduced me to this kitchen marvel and my life was changed. No longer consumed by seething anger and animosity towards thick-skinned yellow fruit, I was able to concentrate on my love of theatre and am writing a musical play about two lovers from rival gangs that just try to make it in the world. I think I'll call it South Side Story.

Banana slicer...thanks to you, I see greatness on the horizon.

Have to say, best kitchen utensil ever is the humble spatula. Why? Ask Deadpool in the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance. One utensil to topple the Inhumans' city of Avalon. What does your banana peeler have on that?

Reality is a nice place to visit, but I'd hate to live there.

This is the best reply:

What can I say about the 571B Banana Slicer that hasn't already been said about the wheel, penicillin, or the iPhone.... this is one of the greatest inventions of all time. My husband and I would argue constantly over who had to cut the day's banana slices. It's one of those chores NO ONE wants to do! You know, the old "I spent the entire day rearing OUR children, maybe YOU can pitch in a little and cut these bananas?" and of course, "You think I have the energy to slave over your damn bananas? I worked a 12 hour shift just to come home to THIS?!" These are the things that can destroy an entire relationship. It got to the point where our children could sense the tension. The minute I heard our 6-year-old girl in her bedroom, re-enacting our daily banana fight with her Barbie dolls, I knew we had to make a change. That's when I found the 571B Banana Slicer. Our marriage has never been healthier, AND we've even incorporated it into our lovemaking. THANKS 571B BANANA SLICER!

I like the one about the Ninja, in the one star reviews. I don't see a single serious review.

I don't like bananas. I like the flavour, but not the texture.

Incidentally, what is Velveeta? I heard it's some kind of cheese...

It is. It's a processed cheese used to make dip for chips (Rotel Dip) and other side dishes. Some people substitute it for regular cheese, but I disagree with this.

I can't tell you what it is, no one can. But it ain't cheese.
