My Spiral Slicer

Beautiful Skin Starts From Within- We Are What We Eat!!

According to the United Fresh Produce Association, sales of pre-bagged vegetables have skyrocketed in the past two decades, with more and more customers choosing them in order to make food preparation easier and faster. When you’re shopping at the supermarket, they may seem like the best culinary development since the deep fryer, but the next time you’re tempted to grab pre-bagged, veggies think twice about the hidden costs–literal and figurative–that accompany them.

After harvest, mass-market pre-cut produce is either washed in a chlorine solution or irradiated in order to eradicate microbes and bacteria, and then put into packaging. Once it’s been packaged, the produce requires refrigeration during transportation, during display, and after purchase. Not only do mass-market pre cut vegetables generate a bigger carbon footprint because of transportation and cleaning, but their packaging alone adds to landfills and contributes to pollution.

We all love the fantasy of opening a bag of veggies and dumping it right into the salad bowl, but back in August 2006, consumers discovered that this particular fantasy was a great way to get E. coli. In August 2007, it became a great way to get salmonella (the most common foodborne pathogen). Over the past few years, dozens of vegetable recalls have been initiated in order to protect consumers from these pathogens as well as others, such as listeria. Bagged and pre-cut vegetables have ostensibly already been washed and treated, they’re actually more likely to harbor pathogens that can cause foodborne illness, especially if the vegetables are not kept properly refrigerated through every step of the production process.

There is no need to purchase pre-cut bag veggies again. My Spiral Slicer is a fast, easy and affordable way to to FRESH vegetables. I just received my Spiral Slicer and wanted to share my honest review of the product with you.


I couldn't wait to try my new Spiral Slicer.  I just love my salads and now with the spiral slicer is it so much easier to create a healthy FRESH salad.  To save time I would purchase pre-cut veggies but they really never had that fresh taste to them, the veggies would be tasteless and not to mention expensive!  Now I purchase whole veggies and quickly slice them with the Spiral Slicer and my salad really does taste so much better. I can taste my veggies!  And it's healthier, no more pre-cut veggies washed in a chlorine solution. My Spiral Slicer will have paid for itself in no time. No more pre-cut veggies for me!  My new favorite go to kitchen gadget.

I was so excited to receive My Sprial Slicer in exchange for my honest review.
