You could also make it out of sausage or grind meats extra fine, with out without "fillers" and make something resembling a hot dog.

 

Of course, if you have a meat grinder and a sausage stuffer, you could make a real hot dog in a casing.

Evidently there's a market for hamburgers that resemble dog turds. It's a wonderful world we live in. :P

 

Olympic Golf Club, site of US Opens and a great course, serves tube burgers like this at its halfway house. An institution there. Guests MUST eat one and rave about it. So revered by the locals that Johnny Miller brought them to Silverado Resort when he bought the joint.

 

They end up being quite nice Medium to Well burgers.

 

But not great as burgers go. But not terrible at all.

The "60-second Salad Maker" on Kickstarter:

"60 Second Salad Maker - Healthy, fresh salads made easy!"

There's a video showing how easy it is to use.

 

It's not likely I would be one of the donors as making a salad isn't really a problem for me.

This device also makes me wonder what the plastic is doing to my knife's edge as I slice through it repeatedly.

I love this

 

" Party Fresh Salad "   

 

60 sec.

 

Fine , medium , oir a bit more coarse.

 

Id look into the Party that comes w this first.

 

BTW  they wanted 5 K

 

they have $ 304, 717.

 

still Id like to hear more about the Party.

 

this may not be as dumb as it looks  like at first glance.

 

its 14 bucks now , but was 12 bucks for those w early insight.

if this really really works  its brilliant thinking  

 

apparently it not going to be made of the white stuff so you have to read down a bit :

 

""   

IMPORTANT: The white prototype seen in the video was Laser 3D printed from nylon. The finished production product will be injection molded from BPA-free, food grade materials. The top will be transparent, while the cutting base is light green BPA-free HDPE (cutting board material). Thanks in advance for your support!

I am not getting this one. seems slower and harder than a knife and a cutting board.

But you gotta love the part where she is sweating and her hair is all messy because she's using a knife and a cutting board!

Ha Ha.   Ya'All

 

this has its place.   not with me , I enjoy my knife skills.

 

many don't .

 

however , this won't work very well for them , even is expertly crafted and made.

 

Why ?   those people have crapy dull knives.  

 

they should be getting Take-Out.

 I have to agree with you on this. The salad looks to me as though it is just crushed.  But given the amount of money pledged I am forced to admit that we may be voices crying in the wilderness.  I cannot quite see either how it might help anyone struggling with hand issues.

I am absolutely positive that my snickerdoodles will turn out so much better in a BLACK one of these.   I can already hear the cheers.

Yes, but none of these responses help.  I had a generic aluminum potato ricer years ago but my question is:  where is the WMF made?

 

Are not they required to say?

 

 

If it was made prior to 1960, then no.  After 1960 one choice MFGs have is a sticker. Most likely the sticker would have been long since removed.
