Pineapple Corer and Slicer
Most slicers and corers designed for single fruits are a waste of money.

However, there is a pineapple corer and slicer that is a different beast altogether. Watching this in action is a joy and it’ll make you want to eat pineapple every day.
It’s cheap and it’s easy to use, turning a full pineapple into a series of juicy rings in no time at all.
