Yeah, I saw the pineapple slicer too. Almost as useful as the museli dispenser.

They aren't exactly discrete, I'm afraid, and a pain to find shelf space for, but they are worth it for the dried strawberries alone.

Wow... The Tchibo one isn't as good as that other one you've got Helen, but its still a decent bit of kit. And its an excellent bit of kit just for the cost of postage for whoever you send it to!

Alert - Dried Food Novice posting!! OK, so I know about dried fruit and its uses. Oh, and I've dried herbs before, too. What else can you dry? How would you use your dried food? How do you store food that you've dried and how long would it last? Can you dry foods by any other method that wouldn't necessitate spending so much money/having such a big bit of kit to store?

you can dry all sorts of things; meat, fish, fruit, veg The most reliable/energy efficient way in this country is to use a dehydrator, but sometimes you can get away with a hot dry spot indoors or a sunny windowsill. Storage is in an airtight container and can be several years depending on the item
