Strawberry Cruncher
My dad came up with a neat idea for mom years ago.
She was cutting up strawberries and my dad (always the inventor) came up with a quicker way to do it. He took an empty sweetened condensed milk can and cut off the top so it has a sharp edge. The we used the can to "crunch" the strawberries into small pieces. Wow, it takes about 2 minutes for chopped strawberries compared to 10 minutes cutting it with a knife!

I am sorry, but it is not really clear to me how you used a can to chop your strawberries. Can you explain it a little more? Did you use the lid or the can? How did you use a can??? See I am just not understanding. Thanks Roxie
Actually I forgot one thing. They cut off both ends so air wouldn't get trapped but just let one end be sharp. Then they just pushed it up and down on the strawberries and the sharp end cut up the strawberries. It seems strange but it really worked.
It would be like pushing a biscuit cutter down on biscuits.
Does that make sense?

I used a potato masher for this job the other day....and it was FAST!
Thanks for the great site and blog.
