I am a food writer, so it should come as no surprise that I live in my kitchen. I am constantly cooking up new recipes, and routinely go the extra mile to cook up from-scratch meals for myself during the week. Even though doing this often takes hours, I truly can’t help myself. I’m just extra like that.

Although this practice has been a blessing for my palette, it has been a curse elsewhere in my life. The time it took to cook these elaborate meals ate up much-needed time to decompress after work. In searching for a solution, I came across the Fullstar vegetable chopper, which ended up being a bit of a lifesaver. I used it to prep ingredients ahead of time, and doing so cut my cooking time in half, giving me at least an hour back during the weeknights. 

And I’m not the only one who is a fan. This product has gone viral on TikTok again and again for its ease of use and efficiency. Right now, you can get one of my favorite cooking tools for 46% off on Amazon (after coupon). Considering this product’s immense popularity, this discount won’t last long, so get it while you can.


Fullstar 6-in-1 vegetable chopper: Save 46%

I’ve had this vegetable chopper for about two years now and it remains to be the most useful cooking tool in my kitchen. The chopper comes with two cutting inserts, a removable tray that catches your food after chopping and slicing, five interchangeable blades, a blade organizer for easier storage, cleaning tools, a protective glove, two protective finger guards and a spiralizer with three settings. This is an incredible value for the price, even if the product wasn’t on sale. 

One of the cutting inserts includes a mandolin that allows you to customize the thickness of the veggies you slice. The other cutting insert is a chopper, which can be used to chop and dice mushrooms, onions, cucumbers and more. The blades for each of these inserts are razor sharp and have remained so after years of use. They also excel at producing uniform cuts, so there’s no need to use a knife to conduct this kind of ingredient prep (I’ve used mine significantly less since getting this tool). 

The extra protective and cleaning accessories have proved to be essential, so don’t skip using them. The glove has prevented me from getting cut time and time again, and the cleaning tools, including the brush and cleaning scrapers, make it so much easier to get flecks of veggies out of the blades. This product is dishwasher safe, but after years of putting this in my dishwasher, the catch-all tray did break down, so much so that I replaced the product last month. This deterioration is normal though; plastic can only stand the tumultuous environment of a dishwasher for so long. 

This Fullstar 6-in-1 vegetable chopper has a 4.6-star rating on Amazon out of more than 23,000 reviews. One reviewer wrote, “This has saved me so much time it’s insane! I love to make a lot of recipes and dips that require a lot of slicing and dicing and this chopper has saved me probably hours of cutting! Great buy!”

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa leaves field with concussion after collision with Bills’ Damar Hamlin

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was ruled out of Thursday night’s game with the Buffalo Bills because of a concussion after colliding with defensive back Damar Hamlin and hitting the back of his head against the turf.

Tagovailoa, who has a history of dealing with head injuries, remained down for about two minutes before getting to his feet and walking to the sideline after the play in the third quarter. He made his way to the tunnel not long afterward, looking into the stands, appeared to smile and departed for the locker room.

The Dolphins needed almost no time before announcing it was a concussion.

Tagovailoa, who sustained multiple concussions his first three NFL seasons, positioned himself for a big pay bump with an injury-free and productive 2023. He threw for 29 touchdowns and a league-best 4,624 yards.

He signed a four-year, $212 million extension before this season and was the NFL’s leading passer in Week 1 this season. Tagovailoa left the game with the Dolphins trailing 31-10, which held as the final score. 

Tagovailoa was hurt on a fourth-down keeper with about 4:30 left in the third. He went straight ahead into Hamlin and did not slide, leading with his right shoulder instead.

He wound up on his back, both his hands in the air and Bills players immediately pointed at Tagovailoa as if to suggest there was an injury. Dolphins center Aaron Brewer quickly did the same, waving to the sideline.

Tagovailoa eventually got to his feet. Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel grabbed the side of his quarterback’s head and gave him a kiss on the cheek as Tagovailoa departed. Skylar Thompson came into the game to take Tagovailoa’s spot.

Hamlin was the player who suffered a cardiac arrest after making a tackle during a Monday night game in January 2023 at Cincinnati, causing the NFL to suspend a pivotal game that quickly lost significance in the aftermath of a scary scene that unfolded in front of a national television audience.

Tagovailoa’s history with concussions — and how he has since worked to avoid them — is a huge part of the story of his career, and now comes to the forefront once again.

He had at least two concussions during the 2022 season. He was hurt in a Week 3 game against Buffalo and cleared concussion protocol, though he appeared disoriented on that play but returned to the game.

The NFL later changed its concussion protocol to mandate that if a player shows possible concussion symptoms — including a lack of balance or stability — he must sit out the rest of the game.

Less than a week later, in a Thursday night game at Cincinnati, Tagovailoa was concussed on a scary hit that briefly knocked him unconscious and led to him being taken off the field on a stretcher.

His second known concussion of that season came in a December game against Green Bay, and he didn’t play for the rest of the 2022 season.

Going into last season, Tagovailoa added muscle and spent time studying jiu-jitsu in an effort to learn how to fall more safely and try to protect himself against further injury.
