This works great but one small added step really helps make it easier. Before pushing the pit out with the straw from the top or stem side go on the bottom and push the straw in until it hits the bottom of the pit. Then when you push the pit through from the top stem side the pit will be pushed out much easier! My wife stumbled upon this method on her own.

A chopstick works great, too if you have one. (Right size, and stiffer than a straw.) Also, before pitting it, place the cherry on top of a soda bottle (preferably glass) with the stem pointing into the bottle. It helps stabilize the cherry and gives you something solid to push against. Also, it's tidier, since you collect the pit, and most of the loose juice, into the bottle.

Worked like a charm. Thanks for the info!

Perfect cherrys for pastry decoration...thanks

Thanks, this was very helpful. I found a small tube in my "parts box" that did the push job, and found to push it into the cherry from the bottom end (there's actually a little dot to show exactly were) and push the pit/stone out from the top which is softer and weak. I held the cherry (top down) onto a plate to give a firm surface. This worked perfectly for me, so it may be a case of take and try these ideas and see which ones work for you. :)

Wow! I have 2 lbs to depot for a cherry pie.. looks efficient, efficient and minimal mess! Thank you

i used 1 part of an old pen, worked like a charm :)

Found this after making two cherry pies... Thank you!

Like it. Just need to find something small enough and similar to your tool since I have a different kind of cherries. Wound up subscribing, because you did it nice and clean. No mess! I like that, so I'm wondering what else you have. Wish you would talk though. So many vids just have music. Seems like no one wants to talk anymore. Oh well....music is "in" right now. Thanks! Great vid! Very professionally done.

Thanks, I'm using your method!

Thank you! Trying to make cherry jam this weekend 😁

Great tip. Thank you

thank you for this, i'm a picky eater who wants to try cherries and i was warned about the pits :)

thanks. saved me from buying a pitter

You just earned a new subscriber 🙏❤️

I do this with strawberries from opposite end of the stem, pops the stems right out.

This method worked impressively. I couldn't find a hard plastic straw, so I used a metal one. My results weren't quite as smooth as his, maybe because I haven't done it very long or maybe because my straw was more smooth at the ends, not sure. But it saved me a lot of time regardless.

Worked great! Thank you

Now how dope and creative is this 🙌🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

Pipe those up with whip cream then please turn away - nom, nom! 😋

Good! I don't even want to know if there's worms in there!

What about cherries with large pits?

Okay

Talk Ihab ..

Ohmygoodnessthabkyou

Thanks for the tip, next time don't waste so much on the wrong ways. Had to ff half the video for the actual info. -_-

Slow

Take that straw and cut the end at a sharp angle, put the straw in your mouth and proceed to plunging the cherries and blowing out the pits. After a few you’ll literally become a cherry pitting warrior.
