Since you can no longer buy lemon or orange zest at the supermarket, like a civilized person, I finally gave in and ordered a zester.

Fine.  You WIN.  If the recipe calls for zest, I’ll fucking zest.

It arrived yesterday.

First, the little “slogan” on the box:

“Make Mom’s Taste Be Back.”

WTF is that supposed to mean and from what language was it badly translated?

(On the other hand, I also kind of love it and am tempted to make a sampler of it)

Second, and more importantly –

THIS THING IS HUGE!

I won’t have any trouble finding this in my kitchen gadget drawer.

I just want to zest some oranges and lemons, and maybe grate the occasional piece of parmesan cheese.

This isn’t a zester.  It’s a fucking weapon of mass destruction!

This thing is for some kind of mutant, giant, food of the Gods sized fruit.

On the upside, I can now easily zest a watermelon if I so choose.
