Since retirement, I’ve had a lot more time to do things that have always interested me. I was always able to make time for canning and freezing things – applesauce was always the big one, and the whole family got involved in cutting up the year’s apples, and once they were cooked, in processing them through the “SQUEEZO” STRAINER, and BOY! am I ever glad I got mine in 1972….maybe Craig’s List, or your local thrift stores, or even garage sales, are better places to look for yours. Or, go with a KNOCK-OFF, and save some money that way. Of course, you don’t HAVE to get this type of strainer - I made 60 quarts of applesauce last fall without mine.
