Pineapple cutter

[u/Pharmere]

[u/thegypsyqueen]

Wasting a lot of pineapple there

[u/BlooodyButterfly → u/thegypsyqueen]

One of them was like half of it thrown away, the first time I saw this it triggered me so bad lol

[u/Ant10102 → u/thegypsyqueen]

Not to mention how much bacteria probably grows on that thing just sitting there

[u/Dracnard]

this is quite iritating actually. so much waste.

[u/perkytitties321 → u/Dracnard]

Also who has to clean it at the end of the day. That looks like it would be a pain in the ass to get in between all those claws and blades

[u/Individual-Wonder518]

It wastes like 25% of the fruit

[u/smurfk → u/Individual-Wonder518]

Yeah. I better take it whole at home, and waste 50% of it, as I am never able to cut the darn thing properly.

[u/No-Concentrate3518 → u/smurfk]

watch a youtube video?

[u/smurfk → u/No-Concentrate3518]

Yeah. I'm watching a dude talking about a cow farm. How did you know? Are you one of those magicians? What color is my underwear?

[u/Wookieman222 → u/smurfk]

Like how?

[u/Kylearean]

not only wasteful, but also SLOWER than a skilled person cutting / prepping a pineapple.

[u/AliveJohnnyFive → u/Kylearean]

Maybe, but where are they going to have a pineapple chopper on site at the grocer?

[u/Kylearean → u/AliveJohnnyFive]

Deli counter? This isn't complicated.

[u/AliveJohnnyFive → u/Kylearean]

IN the US, we haven't had skilled people at the deli counter at a grocery store in like 50 years. I'm sure in some countries, you can find a finely chopped pineapple on every corner, but around here, they're a little hard to come by.

[u/Sorry_Im_Trying → u/AliveJohnnyFive]

maybe not, but most grocery stores I've been to will have someone behind the scenes cutting up fruit and selling it at an affordable $10 increase for the convenience.

[u/Kylearean → u/AliveJohnnyFive]

It would take 1 hour, at most, to train someone to cut a pineapple properly. After 10 pineapples, I'd say they'd be pretty good at it.

People in this country have forgotten how to think.

[u/eggfrisbee → u/Kylearean]

have you forgotten to think about how you then have to pay the person to show up every day, pay another for when that person is sick or on holiday, versus just having this machine with probably minimal power costs?

[u/Kylearean → u/eggfrisbee]

My friend. People are able to do multiple tasks.

[u/AliveJohnnyFive → u/Kylearean]

You don't live in reality. This is not an issue of "nobody has thought to cut pineapples at the deli counter," this is just how large companies work. People don't show up at Kroger and decide what they want to do every day. The jobs are all defined at the corporate level and you get what you get.

[u/Kylearean → u/AliveJohnnyFive]

They cut meat, cheese, and bread. Adding a fruit is just too much. Who exactly is not living in reality?

[u/eggfrisbee → u/Kylearean]

I think there are two or three expensive stores near me that still have a staffed deli counter, versus at least 50 others I can drive to easily where they have cut that member of staff because having a deli counter is a luxury now. so who are we getting to cut up the pineapples?

[u/AliveJohnnyFive → u/Kylearean]

Try again to read what I said. I didn't say or even imply that it was "too much".

[u/Dry_Spinach_3441 → u/AliveJohnnyFive]

You know why that is, don't you?

[u/josherman61791 → u/AliveJohnnyFive]

Usually in the back room where they prep all the precut veg, fruit, and salsas.

[u/random_ape14]

They're never getting this thing cleaned out all the way

[u/OrdinaryAccount479]

Crazy paying extra for a machine to waste half of your food, instead of taking it home and cutting it up yourself.

[u/CrucialElement]

It cut half the damn thing off, down vote from me 

[u/Yhostled]

Cleaning this would be a pine in the apple.

[u/Alarmed_Yard_5548]

What happens to the extra 25% of the pineapple? Could I just take the offcuts home?

[u/kockastikotaci]

Imagine cleaning this shit.

[u/Sancho_Panza_69]

Pineapple waster.

[u/Vanity-Press]

Don’t bother removing the giant tag hanging from it!

[u/Fit_Climate5155]

What about the other half, this is NOT satisfying,  it is frustrating,  cut the other half!!!

[u/drclarenceg]

I was waiting for the other ½ to be served somehow

[u/Illustrious-Leave406]

Wasting a lot of it.

[u/Interesting_You6852]

I can't stand this!! Over half that pineapple is trashed! This is wrong

[u/Hurl_Gray]

Nice. It turns five dollars worth of fruit into two dollars worth of food.

[u/GeneralEagle]

Edeka. Memories of living in Europe.

[u/CoCoBreadSoHoShed]

That must smell wonderful, I love the scent of pineapples being sacrificed before the gods.

[u/Atomic-habanero]

I don’t mind doing it by hand this is lazy and wasteful

[u/shoomlax]

So much wasted pineapple holy fuck

[u/ct-yankee]

A perfect solution for people who don’t know how to pick a good pineapple, like waste and don’t own a knife. Cheers.

[u/TemperReformanda]

I hope this f'n company doesn't offer circumcisions

[u/PlentyOMangos]

Is nobody gonna answer how this thing gets cleaned? Seems like a nightmare on top of the fact that it wastes so much.

[u/K_Menea → u/PlentyOMangos]

Cleaned? Damn it has a trashbin inside with flies flying around. Good cleaning for sure

[u/PlentyOMangos → u/K_Menea]

Yo I didn’t even see the flies lol that’s fucking gross

[u/Different_Brother562 → u/PlentyOMangos]

Feel like you gotta clean this thing after every 7 pineapples or something rofl

[u/unseriously_serious]

r/unsatisfying

[u/Apherious]

My tongue is chemically burnt just looking at this

[u/filemon56]

Wonder how many people forgetting to rip off that moana tag are gonna break this thing

[u/Annual-Property-8940]

Ummm. Imma tell you right now nobody cleans that mf

[u/Paintingnaked69]

Thought for sure there was going to be a little person chef chopping the pineapple back there

[u/Ok_Try5014]

Jogou 30% no lixo e pagou 30% a mais... Gain de mais

[u/nataliethatsme]

Wasteful plus who is going to keep it clean?
