I had a guest that was looking for an asparagus peeler for her aunt. I told her that I though the serrated peeler would work well.
I went right to the store and bought some asparagus to try this out. It works great!
I usually snap the asparagus, but this time I trimmed the bottoms and peeled the tough stuff off. I then drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with kosher salt and baked at 350 for about 20 minutes. It was delicious!

I have been demoing this at every show with a kiwi. Because I do this I have sold quite a few.
 
I used that peeler to cut strips of parmesan cheese for a recipe, and it worked very well. I was impressed.

Good idea! Hadn't thought of that, but I like "shaved" parmesan in Caeser Salad much better than grated or shredded!
 
I love that peeler, it really works great on fruits and things that are otherwise tricky to peel. I especially love it for kiwi... before I used to hack so much of the peel off that it was hardly worth buying it, but now I actually have some left to eat after I peel it!
