Evaluation
There is no idea that this a clever idea. But really is it worth investing $15. For the product? The $10. Isn’t bad but when half of the cost is going to be for shipping then it does raise a bit of red flag. Does it take the VeggieWedge out of the category of being a gadget into being a gimmick?

Final Veggie Wedge Review

There is some merit to the Veggie Wedge. The common step with the chopped veggies is to scrape them off the cutting board into the container or pot. This isn’t idea because unwanted scrapings can be added to the veggies. Or the other method is to use the side of

the knife and the palm of the hand to scoop them up. This can be a little dangerous. There are a lot of chefs who have knicked themselves with a knife doing this. Overall we are prepared to give the Veggie Wedge a try/buy. Mostly if you are one of those individuals who just has to have everything.
