Tools like a Kitchenaid stand mixer or a pasta maker are fun, and they're good to have if you're thinking about "getting into" a new culinary activity. But the downside? They can be expensive and may not be used more than a few times before you're offloading them on Craigslist. 

Enter the Presto 06300 Dehydro Food Dehydrator, an inexpensive investment if you're into dried fruit, fruit leather, beef jerky, and more. I bought mine for $40 but have seen prices fluctuate, so I'd suggest shopping around first. At this price, purchasing a food dehydrator will help cut costs if you're serious about swapping out pricey $7 jerky packs at the store for your homemade versions.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
