   This is my second favorite non-knife kitchen product! Grates parmesean cheese with EASE like non other! And it is incredibly easy to clean. I have recently discovered that it does an awesome job with fresh ginger too! Makes lots of ginger juice, so grate in a bowl if you wanna use the juice (awesome with fresh watermelon juice, the ginger gives it a great tang.) And cinnamon... I love this. The Zyliss jumbo garlic press is my fav non-knife product BTW.Zyliss Jumbo Garlic Press with Cleaner

   I have been wanting to buy one of these for so long. It is so easy to use! I grate all types of cheeses but most of all it works like a charm for grating lemon and orange peel.

   After using cheap imitations for years, I finally broke down and bought a Microplane brand. I guess there is a reason why they are just referred to as "Microplanes" on TV, instead of graters. The Microplane brand gadgets will save a lot of time in the kitchen. Spend the extra couple of bucks on the real deal. You won't be disappointed.
