Oldfashioned Reamer Still The Way To Juice By Amy Thomas on May 14, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I am totally enamored with kitchen gadgets, there are just so many of them out there for so many different things. My goal when appeasing my gadget addiction is finding the biggest bang for the buck, something me and my pairing knife couldn't do better, and something that works fast!
