I’m going to get in trouble for blogging yet another kitchen gadget, but I couldn’t go past this Vacu Vin Stainless Steel Pineapple Easy Slicer. It’s like an apple corer, but as well as coring the pineapple it also slices up the heart of the pineapple and pulls it all out in one go. What’s more you can use the empty pineapple hull as a cocktail cup. The picture above says it all. US$12.95 from Amazon. [Via]

Vacu Vin’s stainless steel version of its award-winning slicer takes the work and mess out of this tropical treat, peeling, coring, and slicing an entire pineapple in just 30 seconds. Equipped with a medium blade to fit most sizes of fruit, it works just like a corkscrew.
