Hey, I’m Sarah and I like avocados. And like any good ~millennial~, I also can’t stop ordering shit off Amazon.
I'm also growing my own avocado tree! Look at her go! PS: I'm taking name suggestions. Please leave them in the comments.
Enter: The 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer. And let’s be honest, this was a complete impulse buy. Because generally, when it comes to kitchen gadgets, I’m always a little skeptical.
I mean, this looks fancy and cute, but I can probably just use my knife, right?
Fast-forward to now: When I ordered it anyway cause I’m trash AND it was only $9.99.
Plus, it has 1,900+ reviews and 4.5 out of 5 stars, which is a pretty good sign!
Here's how it works: The tool has three different parts designed to help you split, pit, and slice an avocado without the risk of you impaling your hand. Pretty rad, eh?
It looks easy enough! So I picked up some precious avocados from the store and it was go time. Here's what happened:
THE SLICE: Super smooth and satisfying!
The plastic blade dug right in and it was really easy to cut all around the avocado. I actually knicked myself with the blade (because it was so slippery) but it didn't cut my skin or hurt at all.
REMOVING THE PIT: So easy and honestly wish I could do this for hours.
I didn't need to use a lot of force to get the three spikes into the pit and it came out with a twist.
AND FINALLY, THE SCOOP: Pretty good considering the avocados weren't fully ripe.
It looked to be going perfectly at first, but got difficult near the bottom of the avocado. TBH: It probably would've been perfect if I left my avocados to ripen for one more day.
So next time you’re making your avocado toast and the knife slips, causing your life to flash before your eyes, consider getting the 3-in-1 Avocado Slicer for yourself!
Well, that took a dark turn. But you know what I mean!
