This is the waste from an entire pound of stawberries.
TIPS:
-The bigger the straw, the better- think fast food, large drink straws. Most fast food places leave their straws on the counter, so next time you are there- grab a few.
-Once the straw bends, its toast. You will have to get a new one.
-Let the strawberry build up in the straw. It makes it easier to hold without bending it and makes it a little stronger to push through the stem.
-You may have to take a couple passes for larger strawberries to ge the whole stem.
Now, go and de-stem some strawberries...the cool way.
