Like, I get comments from people telling me it's weird I always try to peel potatoes like I am trying to make the worlds longest 1-piece potato peel. To me it feels way for efficient and fun to continu down a potato in 1 peel, while circling around it, instead of randomly scraping a hundred different pieces of peel off and having to reintroduce the cutter knife to the potato for every piece.

If efficiency is the goal, spiral is good. If speed is the goal, rapid cuts are best. If both speed and efficiency are the goal, go mechanized.
