Do any of you spiral vegetables to make “pasta?” I was thinking of buying a spiral vegetable slicer like this one. Any recommendations or advice is appreciated.

I just Googled and found this one at Walmart Canada:

It's only about 25 bucks so I guess it would be a good investment as it is much healthier to eat zucchini rather than pasta all the time.

Can you believe I have never ordered anything from Amazon in my life?

Just never felt the urge to do so

There is a huge contingent of Amazon haters here in Seattle (they blame Amazon for the gentrification and rising rents) who thank you for spending your money elsewhere. I'm not among them as a sold my soul to the gods of convenience years ago but admire your resolve.

As for spiraled vegetables. I can see them being delicious but a sorry substitute for actual pasta.

I think it would be something that I used a few times for novelty, and then it would sit and take up space in a cabinet.
But I don't like zucchini, or really any squash type veg.

I did do spaghetti squash a few times. meh, for me. And that was roasting and pulling with forks into strands.
