We gave this new generation of vegetable choppers a whirl, and after testing 16 of the most highly reviewed ones, we can’t wholeheartedly recommend any of them. As staff writer Mace Dent Johnson puts it: “There is no one-size-fits-all tool to save us from the Sisyphean task of meal prep.” [The best option, if you must→](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRoHSKbP0TmaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vd2lyZWN1dHRlci9yZXZpZXdzL2Jlc3QtbWFudWFsLXZlZ2V0YWJsZS1jaG9wcGVycy8_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9MjkwJmVtYz1lZGl0X3djZF8yMDI0MDUwNyZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMjI2NTAmbmw9dGhlLXJlY29tbWVuZGF0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9MTY2NDQ2ODIyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTY1OTQyJnVzZXJfaWQ9ZDY2ZTNkNDM1ZGI1ZjlhZjA5Y2JiNTVlMTBkY2ZlY2RXA255dEIKZjObnTpm0KpxLVIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTJAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD) We independently review everything we recommend.
