Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Spiralised, julienned, sliced and diced, there are a manifold of ways to prep your veg - but what if you're simply too lazy to wield a knife?
If you love to eat carrots but hate to chop them or are just too plain lazy to bother, hipster supermarket Whole Foods has the solution.
The high-end grocer is now offering a new in-store concept within its produce department: it's called the Produce Butcher.
An onsite team member will slice and dice your rainbow chard, cauliflower and squash so you don’t have to, the vegetable butchery service could be a game-changer for lazy people who hate cooking.
Currently only available at the brand’s latest Bryant Park store in New York, the chopping service costs $1 and encourages customers to choose from a selection of cuts including julienned, minced, sliced, diced and chopped.
And, just in case you’re not sure what any of that actually means, a large graphic above the counter pairs each term with an illustration.
It’s essentially vegetable cutting for dummies.
While the prospect of avoiding streaming eyes while slicing an onion does sound appealing, is this a meal prepper’s dream or just a whole new level of laziness?
