Like, I get comments from people telling me it's weird I always try to peel potatoes like I am trying to make the worlds longest 1-piece potato peel. To me it feels way for efficient and fun to continu down a potato in 1 peel, while circling around it, instead of randomly scraping a hundred different pieces of peel off and having to reintroduce the cutter knife to the potato for every piece.

The Y peelers or as they were called in the kitchen I worked in "the lady's shaver" are great because you can cut on the back and forward motion.

Carrots, potatoes, cucumber all peeled superfast by peeling back and forth instead of only one direction.

Yeah once you get into a rhythm with the Y peeler you'll be flying through produce in no time
