I was intrigued when scanning through my Lakeland magazine to find a Vacu Vin pineapple slicer. To clarify - this is not a lakeland branded product, but is only available in the UK from LP.

A friend put the gadge on the top of the pineapple, then pushed it down while turning it clockwise. It worked quite easily. It took a few minutes for us both to realise but I am (very) left handed and I had everything completely the wrong way round. I did eventually ...
