[Magdalen] Spiralizer?

[Lynn Ronkainen]

I'm still on the fence about which version of veggienoodlemaker to buy, but 
on Saturday last, I snagged a Mandolin grater  from France (VERY chi-chi) - 
thin slice, wavy slice, 'French fry' cut and mini-square noodlesque cut, for 
$5.00.  I'm still on the fence about Jay's noodler just because of size, but 
it is much more versatile than the hour glass shaped one (which I noticed 
was selling for the 'TV price' of $14.99 at my local Jo Ann fabrics, which I 
could use a 50% off coupon to purchase, so I may go that route first and see 
how it goes).
