What: Bird lemon-juicer
Manufacturer: Produced in China
Where: Williams-Sonoma
Price: $5
This palm-sized juicer will squeeze exactly one lemon slice about 3/4 of an inch wide. It would be fun to pass a flock of these on a serving plate at an informal meal when guests might want to squeeze fresh lemon juice on fish, chicken, vegetables.
Consider this juicer an alternative to the cheesecloth netting that restaurants tie around lemon halves so customers don't squirt themselves in the eye.
The test. Works well. And it's easy. Just open the top lever, insert one lemon slice, rind-side down, squeeze the lever gently, then tip the bird downward so the juice flows out of its beak. Wash by hand.
