Found it @ the store yesterday, in a discount bin for $8. Since I'm planning on using it for zucchini/squash veg pasta strands for soups, stir fries and salads, I won't be disappointed if it doesn't work.

1. I like mine

I think I paid about $12 for it, a couple of years ago.

2. Reminds me that I have one of those things and seldom use it.

I made a couple of salads last year and forgot about it. It was a chore to use as I recall, but we love eating more veggies in hot weather so I'll have to dig it out and give it another try.

3. I have been eating more stir fries but always serving them over rice or noodles

is upping my carbs too much. Given that my knees & hip hurts more when I weigh more, veggie 'pasta' seems to be a better option.

4. That's a good idea. Thanks!

And I just made a huge beef stir fry... with noodles, of course. Now I wish I had thought about using the spiral maker doodad. Well, I have another stir fry on the menu so I'm go gonna find that thing now before I forget it again.

5. Mine works fine. I have the manual one.

6. I like mine also.

I have also used it instead of slicing stuff in soups. I just cut the strands in to smaller sections.

7. I just use a serrated vegetable peeler

The strands are only the length of the vegetable, but that's good enough for me. I also use a regular peeler for "fettucine" and my mandoline for thin slices that I use to make lasagne.
