(Food-Beverage-News.Com, September 19, 2014 ) Beaverton, OR -- The term ‘spiralizing' is being commonly used these days. This can mostly be attributed to low carb eating being the latest big food trend. Home chefs across the world have discovered a kitchen tool that can aid in the preparation of low carb meals.
This kitchen tool cuts firm textured vegetables (and fruit) into spirals to produce vegetable "spaghetti" or "noodles". The appeal being that texture-wise, they taste just like the real thing and can be used in a many ways but in terms of nutritional value these spirals are much higher in fibre and lower in carbs.
Much has been written on the weight-loss benefits of eating a low carb diet, therefore it is not surprising that those who wish to lose weight are keen to get their own spiralizer kitchen tool.
One such tool, the VegePal vegetable Spiral Slicer is available on Amazon, the major US online retailer. Amazon provides a door to door delivery service which is fast, reliable and highly efficient.

Vegetables may also be spiralized to make garnishes and salads. It is used like a pencil sharpener on any firm-textured vegetables such as carrot, zucchini, cucumber, sweet potato, beetroot and more.
The hand-held Spiral Slicer requires no assembly. To clean, it can be placed in the top rack of a dishwasher or simply rinsed under the tap, using the supplied brush if necessary. It is compact enough to store in a kitchen drawer.
