colander filled with lettuces</figcaption></figure> <p>A <b>salad spinner</b>, also known as a <b>salad tosser</b>, is a <a href="/wiki/Kitchen_tool" class="mw-redirect" title="Kitchen tool">kitchen tool</a> used to wash and remove excess water from <a href="/wiki/Salad" title="Salad">salad</a> <a href="/wiki/Leaf_vegetable" title="Leaf vegetable">greens</a>. It uses <a href="/wiki/Centrifugal_force" title="Centrifugal force">centrifugal force</a> to separate the water from the leaves, enabling salad dressing to stick to the leaves without dilution. </p><p>Salad spinners are usually made from plastic and include an outer bowl with an inner removable <a href="/wiki/Colander" title="Colander">colander</a> or <a href="/wiki/Strainer" class="mw-redirect" title="Strainer">strainer</a> basket. A cover, which fits around the outside bowl, contains a spinning mechanism that when initiated causes the inside strainer to rotate rapidly. The water is driven through the slits in the basket into the outer bowl. There are a number of different mechanisms used to operate the device, including crank handles, push buttons and pull-cords. The salad spinner is generally easy to use, though its large and rigid shape has been criticized by food editor Leanne Kitchen and <i>Herald-Journal</i> reporter Mary Hunt. A salad spinner is often considered bulky and difficult to store. </p><p>Although devices used to wash, dry and spin salad have long been in existence, including one from the 19th century, the modern mechanism-operated spinner originated in the early 1970s. In 1974, the Mouli Manufacturing Co. introduced a crank-operated salad spinner to the American market; other companies were not far behind with their own patented variations. The product sold favorably and demand was high, with stores struggling to keep it in stock. Despite the product's popularity, however, it was not entirely without criticism; some were skeptical about the necessity of "another gourmet gadget".<sup id="cite_ref-Hevrdejs_page1_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hevrdejs_page1-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Salad_spinner&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Although the invention of the salad spinner is considered to be modern, earlier devices, including one from the 19th century, did exist and performed similar functions.<sup id="cite_ref-Hunt_2003_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hunt_2003-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> When the salad spinner was introduced to the mass market in the 1970s, a number of other techniques and products were already available and employed for the drying of vegetables and salad. One such device was a wire basket dryer, in essence a collapsible colander, which could be shaken or spun to expel the excess water. This method has been criticized by some for its impracticalities and according to one writer, the process was "akin to standing near a dog that’s shaking himself dry."<sup id="cite_ref-Hevrdejs_page2_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Hevrdejs_page2-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Franey_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Franey-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Another product was a wire lettuce dryer designed for use in the sink. A basket was fixed with suction cups to the bottom of the sink, and pushing a pump caused the basket to spin around a center post, often spraying expelled water on the operator.<sup
