Okay, you guys know that I am a &quot;gadget-holic&quot;, have to have every new kitchen widget that comes out.  I picked up a pair of the Tater Mitts the other day, you know, the ones that the commercial says you can de-skin a whole potato in 8 seconds.  They are a pair of rubber gloves with rough &quot;bumpies&quot; all over the palm part and supposedly, you just rub the potato under running water and the skin is gone.  I needed to peel some potatoes today to put in with the pot roast I am making for dinner, so I got my spuds out and pulled out the gloves and was ready to get down to business.  Then I thought maybe I had better check the  directions, even though I was thinking &quot;how hard can it be to rub a potato?&quot; and discovered that you have to boil the potatoes first - hmmm, no mention of that on the commercial.  So, after I boiled them, I put the gloves on and was ready to &quot;peel&quot; them in 8 seconds each...the gloves are huge and cumbersome, very hard to work with.  They kept flopping around and it took me over 2 minutes each to do the first 2.  After that, I threw the things in the sink and got out a knife.  The instructions say to rinse them and let them dry - yeah, good luck with that&#33;&#33;&#33;  The bits of skin get stuck between all the little bumps.  If you are thinking about this one, save your money&#33;
