Here's a French kitchen gadget that didn't stand the test of time. It was used to make a dish you probably ate as a child but can you guess what?

"used to make a dish you probably ate as a child"

Not many things were made out of plastic when I was a child. Anything like that would have been made out of metal.

Looks like some kind of cutter, probably for dough / pasta. I can't think of anything I ate shaped like that.

Pathetic the AI bots have to come along and ruin questions like this one, but I think they got it wrong anyway.  My gut feeling is this has something to do with toast.

I sure my mother still keeps the one she had back when we were children... I wonder whether I could "pinch" it for our children! lol

The gadget you're describing is likely a mouli-grater, which was traditionally used to make purées or mash foods like apples or potatoes. These purées are akin to classic dishes like apple sauce or mashed potatoes, both staples in many childhood meals. I recall visiting a little bistro in France, where the aroma of freshly made pommes purée filled the air, bringing back memories of comforting meals. 🍎🥔

It's not a kitchen gadget. It's a massage tool, used in particular on the back of a person's thighs and calves. The masseuse rolls it back and forth, loosening the muscles. Be sure to use lots of oil on the skin, make it nice and slippery, or it could get bloody.

Some people might use it go make fish sticks, but that's another skill.

It looks a bit like an egg and soldiers cutter but it's plastic so I will guess a dough cutter for shortbread.
