All of those cooking websites that offer suggestions for easy way to pit cherries?

Liars. All of them.

Tho' I suppose this is all thematically appropriate, as I'm spending the evening binge-reading Hannibal fic.

there's a tool called a cherry pitter that looks like a melon-baller crossed with that tool for putting gromets into things so a round bit with a hole in it on one side and a peg on the other side. That is truly the easy way to pit cherries. I grew up pitting cherries by the gallon with one every June.

I wonder if it is in my mother's stuff somewhere. Here it is on Amazon for cheap: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073VNQ9ZF/ref=sxts_k2p-hero-vn_lp_2?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_p=8011851592090061987&pd_rd_wg=PHjGF&pf_rd_r=305SPPKSHVA0GA38QVX3&pf_rd_s=desktop-sx-top-slot&pf_rd_t=301&pd_rd_i=B073VNQ9ZF&pd_rd_w=hoIow&pf_rd_i=cherry+pitter&pd_rd_r=68344737-da93-4f7e-ac2a-86bc5ad54838&ie=UTF8&qid=1528280511&sr=2

and yes, I do apologize for the gobbledygook link. but the tool is easy to use and actually does the thing.

Honest, I know what a cherry pitter is. I just don't eat them often enough to warrant getting one.

okay. I was not getting the impression from the comment on youtube videos that you were familiar, and it's such a WEIRD and SPECIFIC little tool I didn't want to assume you did.

Even with a cherry-pitter, I've found the kitchen looks like a murder scene afterwards. It's just the nature of the...fruit.

[staxxy]

the murder scene aspect is one of the best parts though...

true!
