De-Huller!

I don’t own a strawberry dehuller. Instead, my trick is to grab a big box of strawberries, and sit on the front porch and start eating the stems. Pretty soon, a neighborhood kid will come up and ask me what I’m doing.

“Why, I’m just enjoying the greatest snack of them all! You mean you eat the nasty red part? I tell you what, these stems are the bee’s knees!”

The kid will then sit next to me and start eating the stems, all the while praising their virtues. Soon some other kids will join him, all of them very enthused about eating strawberry stems. At this point, I go inside and watch a movie. An hour and a half later, I come back out, and find all my strawberries de-hulled.
