It's not just for peeling things. You can make shavings of cheese, like Parmigiano-Reggiano. Every peeler has like a little attachment on it that's made to pull off eyes off of a potato or bruises on a piece of fruit. So, it's not just a peeler, it's a cleaner. It does so many things.

This is the one item on my essentials list where I think if you were to leave one thing out of this entire list of utensils, you could leave this out, but I promise you that there will be an occasion where you wish you had one of these.
