A. Well, with 8 strings, a mandolin probably would make a good veggie slicer/shredder.
B. I wonder how many cabbage are in a heard (or herd)?
C. If I could pick up a mandolin for 8 bucks, I’d probably start playing again.

Vegetable mandolin (n): a device for simultaneously slicing vegetables and fingers. If you do buy one of these, I recommend picking up a giant box of sticking plasters at the same time. This is the Voice of Experience speaking.
