@imallears I am so thankful for our Publix and the pre cut veggies at this point. I was using my mandoline veggie slicer two days ago and landed myself in the ER with the top of my index finger chopped off. No more slicing and dicing for me for a while!
@jakedduck1 Leonard, I want to answer your quiz, but I will leave it for @imallears !

Oh my goodness. I just donated my mandolin because it was not a good one and I was looking into a small food processor. As of now I slice and dice by hand but when I did use the mandolin I used a grating glove...which I also use for grating. I have had nicks but no ER visits. What did they do for the finger and how big a piece did you chop off? That must literally have been a bloody mess.
Wow...order out for a week lol...not so funny though.

Ouch!! Sorry to hear about your finger and the mandoline veggie slicer. Were they able to reattach your fingertip?
@amanadaburett
Did you come up with the correct answer?

@amandaburnett I took a huge swing at a spaghetti squash and cut the tip of my index finger off too! it was just a small slice and is almost healed now but it bled for six hours. My husband wanted to take me to the ER but the wait is always so long that I couldn't be bothered.
With the swing I took, I am very lucky to not have cut it further down, I seriously would have chopped a good piece of my finger off. Lesson learned.

@imallears I have a mandolin and will hold off on using it! I did it with a dull knife slicing a bagel! Feel better
