PUMPKIN GUTTER TOOL


Pumpkin Gutting Tool
Found this in the clearance bin at lunch last week.  It's a pumpkin gutter.  I've never heard of it but hey, maybe I've lived a sheltered life.


 It was only $2.48...never thought I'd find Halloween clearance after Christmas but I guess it was just waiting to be taken home by us.

Pumpkin Gutter
Next year when we do the Pie Pumpkins again, this will come in handy.  It goes in the business end of a power drill and then you just use it to remove the guts, strings and seeds.  Should be fun to try and maybe it'll be a big timesaver.

UPDATE:  They sell them at AMAZONl. Who knew?  

Here is the link:  Pumpkin Gutter & Carving Tool

Anyone ever seen one of these?

  4. Please don't get mad. So funny I can't help it, but you might better do that outside. I can just see seeds and pumpkin going everywhere. Plus the pumpkin strings are going to get tangled in the beater. Ever made a pumpkin pie filling with a electric hand mixer?

    2. LOL! Steakandeggs you bring up a great point. I didn't think about that. Hmm....I might have to rethink this, ha.

      Kymber, you are just jealous aren't you? I know you want pumpkin guts flinging all over your kitchen, don't you? I'm sure Jam would love it too. ;-)

    1. Thanks, there are some odd things out there, I just keep my eye out, ha. I will definitely share the details, though with no pumpkins around now, it might be awhile, ha.

  6. Well, that is unusual. Wear a plastic poncho and goggles and go outdoors.

    Right now, stores are cleaning out the back and clearancing everything for inventory. They don't want to count it or explain to district manager what all those boxes of junk are doing. WM has 4th of July items on clearance.

    1. LOL! I have been sharing these comments with 2nd Man and he said "Oh no, you are NOT doing that inside the house....or on the porch...or in the garage." FINE! Ha. Poncho is a great idea too, ha.

      Tis the season for deals I bet, ha.

    1. I never really liked it either and figured for about $2, it was worth a shot. And hey, judging from the comments, it might be rather entertaining, ha.

  8. Be sure to make a video of the process so we can all enjoy your test for this new marvelous gadget. You can't go wrong with trying a new item if it's only $2.48. Who knows, it may work wonderfully.

    1. I will TOTALLY do that. It might be the most amazing thing ever, or a complete and utter fail, ha. We'll see what happens when pumpkins come around again. ;-)

I freaking hate cleaning pumpkins and my daughters goal in life is to get the biggest pumpkin ever! Amazon here a come! Then to the Dollar Tree to get a rain poncho because it can't hurt, right????

    1. Ha, I bet it would be a good paint mixer but could get out of control quickly, ha.

  11. I have never seen that, never would have dreamed it existed! At first I thought it was some sort of mixing tool. Looks perfect for the intended purpose though.
