Bloke shows the right way to peel carrots and people are stunned they’ve got it wrong for so long

PEELING vegetables is never a fun chore but it’s one of those things that just has to be done. 

But it turns out you’ve probably been peeling spuds and carrots wrong your entire life, after one bloke shared his ‘life changing revelation’.

He posted a video on , sharing his discovery with the world after finally realising the correct way to use a peeler. 

He says: “Oh my God, I’ve just figured out it does this.”

He peels the carrot in one direction going down, then peels it straight back up again.

Most of us usually peel in one direction only, as he demonstrates, saying: “I’ve been doing this.”

But it turns out the peeler works both ways, potentially saving you time when trying to get through bags of vegetables for dinner.

He then drops the carrot and peeler on the floor as he says “who knew”. 

His video has been watched thousands of times, as it turns out not many people knew you could use a peeler both ways either.

Hundreds have commented on the clip, calling his tip a ‘game changer’. 

One person said: “I was just doing this 2 days ago wondering to myself why it had blades in both directions.

“I thought… and finally concluded it was to support left handed people. God I’m dumb.”

Another wrote: “That literally changed my whole Peel game.”

A third commented: “I was just peeling potatoes 10 min ago. This is blowing my mind.”

Someone else wrote: “Oh damn. I used to work as a juicer and peeled buckets of carrots and I didn’t even know this.”

While this person added: “I have never thought of that. Now I want to go peel something.”
