Corn Peelers Tested

- We love corn on the cob, but it can be a little hard for some people to eat. We reviewed 3 different corn peelers/strippers we found on Amazon. Watch and see how they compare to a basic knife.

You girls crack me up! One of the funniest product reviews I've seen in a while. :)
😂glad we make you laugh, too!
Thank you ladies! I was in the market for a corn peeler. You just saved me time, money and frustration
The ring yellow one, you’re supposed to twist as you push, then do the same on the other end of the 🌽 😊😉
Hi! A tip for when you have several cobs to strip. If you have a sturdy Bundt cake pan, stand your ear of corn in the center hole. It steadies the corn, and as you cut the kernels off they land in the pan.
Thanks for the tip!
Anybody can make anything look awkward if they try. OXO makes a Corn Prep Peeler that is a Y version. It works very well and is not messy at all. The trick to using these manual peelers is to leave the stalk end attached to the ear of corn so you have a handle to grab. If not, then pull the husk back so it makes a handle. I tried the electric knife with both a trigger button and the thumb button and both made my hand hurt and they got dangerously hot after a few dozen ears at a time. The OXO Corn Prep Peeler does not. Lay the ear down in the cookie sheet, hold the stalk, pull the peeler with the other hand AWAY from the first hand. No chance of slipping and cutting yourself. No hand cramps. No buttons to push. And it cuts close to the cob leaving very little residue behind. Practice makes perfect. And if you grow your own, you can pick with stalk attached.
Yeah Robyn is back. Good review ladies
Thank you!! I’ll only be missing from the food reviews (but it’s nice to be missed!)
DutchBikeBlogger I feel for the hubbies when Cathy and Robyn use those corn peelers😉
So many double entendres! Almost spit water all over the place! Thanks for another great video!
Bob Bush 😂
2¢ Chicks Hey there is this new stuff to clean Windows it's called full crystal it's as seen on tv..
Yes it seems almost PG rated lol I love it
I accidentally read "double entendres" as "doable entrees". Though, doable entrees could probably be a double entendre in the right context.
My husband decided that this year he wanted us to preserve the yummy goodness of local & low-cost corn (carried at our local grocery) for all year round dinners. My sister told me that her friend is a big fan of the Pampered Chef kernel cutter, so I bought one at a friend's party. Now my spouse is very skeptical of kitchen tools and avoids buying what he calls "one job tools." But-- while I was away one evening, he used the Kernel Cutter on several ears that I had blanched that afternoon, and he loved it! He even recommends it to others now. He vacuum sealed and froze the corn with a pat of butter in small 2 person servings, so come winter, yummy corn for our family.
I usually love anything Pampered Chef! We weren’t aware they had such a gadget...should’ve known! Thanks!
Alton Brown calls that a unitasker.
PXT1958 Oh thank you! That's exactly who he quotes .... my old brain couldn't recall Alton's term for it. Alton has ruined my kitchen gadget window-shopping ... hubby will say, "but like Alton says, it only does one thing."
And he's right. I miss Good Eats. Iron Chef America was good but Good Eats was really good.
All Pampered Chef things are the best :)
I think you should rotate/twist that Corn Plane as you push down, "sawing" off the kernels rather than shearing them off. Just guessin'.
We’ll give that a try. Thanks
My thoughts exactly great vid
The round one is made to twist back and forth when you are shelling corn. It would work great if you did that.
I’ve watched you forever, but I’m binge watching old episodes LOL
Lol thanks! 😄
I have the first one Robbin tested and it works like a charm!! Don't press down to hard, just slide it down the cob!! Mine is made of a harder plastic. I got mine 6 years ago🌽
Awesome!! I really liked that one, too! Would’ve liked it better if it were sturdier...we’ll look for one!
When there are no directions, ask the corn to lend you an ear. And in spite of any corny questions you may have, a healthy ear of sweet corn always has at least a kernel of wisdom to guide you...
Funny video! 😂 I have a different one of the “mouse” type ones and it works really good and has held up. It actually seems a safer way to go than a knife with your hand further from the blade. Keep up the great videos!
Omgosh... That seemed like a lot of work. I think I will stick with the traditional knife method.
😄😄😄 You 2 are hilarious. 💙💚💛
I’m going to stick with a regular knife lol I do put a small bowl inside a large bowl or on a plate to help make less mess tho lol great review 👍🏻
That’s a great idea!
this video brought back memories of the Movie the original Bachelor Party where the lady is trying to get the hot dog, and that's all I will say LOL
😂😂😂
For me it brought back memories of American pie 2 😂
And that’s all I will say LoL
My best corn off the cob way is Birds Eye Corn Steamers. Even tastes like corn off the cob. Of course with a knife, you get the corn milk too. Thanks for the fun demo.
You’re welcome! 😀
this video was way to funny loved it
😂 thanks! 😜
I stepped out of the room at 1:39 and was like... Wait what did I click on? What an out of context! LOL!
😂😂
I use a knife and draw the blade (paring knife) between the kernels every 3 columns from end to end (between the kernels, not through them). You cut deep enough to ensure you get deeper than the germ. THEN you cut the columns you seperated off. The mouse or senior might help here.
If we have corn on the cob we eat it off the cob otherwise we just buy frozen or canned corn. 😉
My thoughts, use a griddle and you can brown it just as easily or air fryer
great review, but i think i will stick with method of using a knife. i do a lot of canning of corn so i need to be quick. i use a angel food cake pan and i stick the cob in the center hole and slide the knife right on down and all the corn goes into the pan, quick and easy. so if you are cutting up a lot of corn this way i have found to be the less messiest, and the pan will hold about between 8 and 12 ears worth of cut corn depending on the size of the cobs.
I have seen it done that way! I forgot all about that! Thanks Ken!
you're welcome
Welcome back Robyn. Great job as usual. Now, I'm going to slap myself and shut up.
Ha! Thanks Don! I’ll only be missing on the food reviews!
Don W Aw.you were thinking something but that thought is in the vault 😉😂
When you have over 200 carbs to do that you’re going to freeze later do you need something a little faster and I’m looking for a good one to
I am laughing so hard right now. Am I the only one that had to watch Robin's technique a couple of times? How do you put RUclips in slomo? Robin is a real team player. And Cathy with her it's a little messy comment and I am super sticky. There is so much double entendre in this video. Hall of fame material. OH MY GOD! Bow-chicka-wow-wow! Delete my comment if you see fit but this is your best video ever. Take your act to Vegas.
😂😂 Share with your friends! 😁
2¢ Chicks Most people don't have my sense of humor.
You can actually change the playback speed! Tap the screen and then the “...” and there’s an option for it!
Ok the 3 dots are vertical, not horizontal. My bad. I guess I’ll rephrase to “tap the screen and click the 3 dots in the top right corner” lol
PolkaDotsAndPaisley I'd never don that. Too fast and they're really hyper. Too slow and they're drunk. Both work for me. Slow is best. Two drunk women figuring out how to cut kernels off of corn. Hilarious at half speed.
You girls are soooo funny! I want to see the unedited version...of course it stays straight when it's hard!
😂😁
Hi Cathy! I like your cutting action with the knife. If I cook cut corn, somebody else cuts it for me in a big bowl with a butcher knife. I like the first apparatus Robyn used. It seems sane and safe. Lolz. Happy Summer 🌽😂🌽🤣🌽🤪🍧😎🍨😅🍦😘
The first one was pretty good! Happy summer! 😀🌽🌞
On the yellow round on I think you did it backwards. I think the teeth curl in a bit and I think that's to milk the cob. I could be completely wrong but worth a try. If it had handled like a apple slicer does it would work so much better.
Great review.
🙏
Thanks!
Thank you for the video, I agree the knife is the way to go. Have a Great 4th of July
Thanks! 🇺🇸
O my gosh i needed that cracked me up! I want to see the bloopers lololololol
😂😂
As much as I love gadgets, the knife is definitely the winner. I bought some corn holders from QVC and it came with a corn cutter. Haven’t tried it yet but we love corn and bean salad. Gonna have to see if it’s better than these😂Thanks for the review😃
As much as you love gadgets I would have thought you had all of them! 😂
I laughed until I cried. I never knew corn could be so funny.
😂😂 Now you know! 😜
tipimaven You see how she held up that cob?😉
I love watching you two ladies!! Great video, I’m old fashioned and like simple things I haven’t gotten into gadgets even though there are some pretty cool ones out there.
Dan you a baddie.. oh wait this was 5 years ago and dunno how long ago the pfp was from 5 years ago so I gotta ask.. are you still a 10/10 baddie??
I am glad I have a good old fashioned corn peeler.
I admit I use a drill to speed the process, but I can get 100 ears of corn done in 15 minutes.
After that review, I'm thinkin ya might wanna try a review on
Corn Cuttin PPE: Controlled Environment & Eye Protection.
Amazon has a fantastic selection to choose from, that won't break the bank for those on a budget or just don't wanna spend a whole lotta money.
Can even get enough to keep on hand for future Reviews that you wanna suit up for, Just Cuz.
Anyway.. this was another Typically Outstanding vid.
Thanks for sharing it with us.
Think I'll toss a bag of popcorn in The Mikey! 😎👍👍
😂😂 that’s a great idea! 😂
Thanks! 😁
Ladies... After watching this video, nothing beats a good chefs knife peeling corn from the husk 👍
OMG! This one cracked me up!! Great review!!
😂😂 Thanks!
Think I'll stick with my trusty knife. I do have a gadget I purchased 10-15 yrs ago .It DID work but it took up too much space, plus it had super sharp blades. Almost like the last gadget but without the plastic. Just the circle of jaws and two things to hold. Great video. Glad all fingers are intact and the flying corn wasn't damaging. No Aprons? Lol🌽
Glad to see Robyn back.
I'll send over some recipes soon Cathy. Didn't forget, had some issues with my email.
Thanks!
Great review video,Ladies.. You might want to try the hollar app. Get some good stuff there. Enjoy your weekend..
Thanks! We will check it out!
Omg 😂 that round peeler made the cooked corn look so....phallic.
😂😜
I was dying!!! 😂🤣😂 R-
Good review
Thank you
Love the video, very amusing. I'm guessing the "Senior" refers to senior citizen who can't eat corn on the cob due to dentures or bad teeth ?
Oh that might be, we didn’t even think about that! 🤪 Thanks!
they showed the round lid on rachel over facebook theres a long one that looks like a waterbottle seems to be most expensive i have one that has two handles but dosent grag the short ends to well freezer corn best allmost as many as egg gadgets
First one it is! LOL 😂 Thanks for saving us the trouble!!!
why don't you try twisting the corn into the yellow looking corn stripper?
Love the downblouse shots
Robyn seems put off by the danger of some of these gadgets and how casual Cathy is swining that knife around. Aren’t these corn slicers supposed to make removing the corn easier and safer, maybe cleaner too? Ya, I gotta go with the general consensus on this one and place my vote for the knife. I’ve already got one and I’m not filling a drawer with junk that that doesn’t work any better, really.
She was a little nervous! 😂
You’d have to twist it ,the yellow corn shaver in one direction.
You'll got a work out! Great review!
LOL 😁
As Alton Brown of "Good Eats" fame would tell you: Single tasker tools are almost always pointless and seldom make the job easier.
A couple of other people mention that too. I haven’t watched him in years, I used to love Good Eats! And I agree with him! 😀
As someone who loves corn but hate gnawing on on the useless cob, this may be something I should look in to. It does look pretty dangerous though. Nice review!
It can be dangerous, be careful! 😁
Delightful giggles but very little blushing w/ the round thingie w/ protruding corn---a sign of many years of marriage, I guess.
Lol
The dirtiest video yall have made yet....ha!.
It was pretty messy! 😁
Keith James But they didn't do it with bikinis on😉
I came here for this comment! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
LoL 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 am crying laughing with that you tested.
😄
@@2centchick just can't mention. since its Rated haha 😂 hv to give it to both of you for containing your Laughter. (or is that why there was a lot of cuts 😂) Thank you for keeping it wholesome still ❤️🙏❤️
Great review. Got a little nervous for a couple moments. Looks like you could get hurt with those pealers. I say stick with the knife.
We needed protection that’s for sure! Lol
JAX ACDC I bet their husband's are scared after seeing em do that to the corn😉😅
2¢ Chicks I thought that was a shaver yikes.
are nt you suppose to twist it
I always end up going back to the knife.
Simple is best. And everyone has a knife, so if ur at a bbq and want to cut the corn off for whatever reason can just go grab a knife easy peasy. The mouse thing seemed alright tho
We agree!
Robyn's having fun playing with her food lol :p :D
😂😜
What kind of weirdo peels the corn off the cobb?
Corn on the cobb should always be eaten while still on the cobb.
Slather it in tons of butter and chomp your way through it like a squirrel.
That's the Wisconsin way! 😆
😂😂
You forgot the salt!
Oh No! How could i forget the salt!!! 😱
Wait til you have dentures and attempt to eat corn on the cob - then you'll understand! by the way they're not weirdo's they just want to enjoy fresh corn , like you do, only without the embarrassment, or hassle.
i broke a tooth eating corn off the cob, so i cut it off nowadays.
I can't disagree.
I came trying to see how one of these devices worked. I stayed because look at these women. What's up freckles?
Awesome show! Gotta love some suspense in a review, so I was waiting for the mouse to break in half across the top (who puts the grip-pads for squeezing on either side of the flimsiest part? ridiculous), & the ring one to snap the cob & send pieces all over the kitchen :P
I second the opinion that 'senior' refers to senior citizens - it has the same design of vegetable peelers that have a horizontal blade, which were originally designed & marketed to people with arthritis or other health issues that reduce your ability to grip & manipulate the old standard vertical-blade peelers, but these days everyone seems to use them.
Personally I find them uncomfortable & far less finely-controllable than vertical blade peelers, but I know ppl who like the horizontal blade & say you can peel much faster with them & that they don't care if the end result isn't pretty - & I can see the merit of that if you've got kids or just better things to do :D
Yw Cathy and robin
You girls crack me up!
You are supposed to twist the cylinder not just force it straight down.
There is a reason why I'm not married, this just confirms my reasons.
My mom just used a knife , works great, and when you've got dentures you can't typically eat it off the cob Which is why she had to use a knife , but she just left it on it's side and cut it off , didn't scrape down like most people do.
I won't even say what that last cutter made it look like!!!!! I'm sure dirty minds like myself can figure it out rather easily lol
😂😂
I think I'll entertain myself with reading comments on this one lol BTW I'm back home and it's SOO nice to be back :)
😂 Welcome back and welcome home!
LOL 😂 they are pretty funny! Welcome home! You should have your package on Tues!
Thx you guys are great :)
That weird yellow one made Robin's corn almost pornographic. LOL Or it's just me.
😂😂
I have a suspicion that Evan Williams has a better way than Senor Corn de Guadalajara.
Theses two are comedy gold and subscribe to 2c chicks 🐥 if you like two funny beautiful ladies trying out different products with a little comedy
Thanks! 😀
_I prefer a knife as well_
This is like Abbot & Costello vs the corn monster....
My opinion, a knife and a bowl is the easiest way to go!
I agree!
I just heard the third one just sold 35,000
WOW! I need to sell mine.
@@2centchick Ha. I was kidding due to the appearance of the corn....and I meant 35,000 units, not dollars....😉😄
Oh! 😂😂
Interesting ladies!
Now this is very cornice video.
Oh my how do you keep a straight face 🤪
😜

So beautiful.
"Its a little messy"🤔
8.02
Why you girls blushing @ 7:00 ? ; )
😁
🤣🤣
OOO MYYY GOD LOL
😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
My teeth work better at getting the corn off the cob! Seriously, why all the trouble. Why not just use your teeth?
Teeth work for most people, but if you have braces or dentures eating corn on the cob can be a challenge.
Absolutely NO common sense
They are definitely blondes….
