Which veggies do you find most difficult to spiralize? Even with a counter top Spiralizer?
- It could be because of the vegetables hardness & inability of sharpness/ Blades to cut correctly

Why am I asking? I've never spiralized before.
I've been reading various articles, books, reviews on spiralization and spiralizors and some mentioned Zucchini are easy, some kind of Squash and Sweet Potatoes are hard etc etc.
These are all over the place and variable. If someone people here are regular executions of Spiralizing then they could chime in and share their easy vs difficult spectrums and it would be more trustable.
Yes some answers may differ a little bit but the spectrum from easy to difficult will largely have some consistency / bindings.

Lotus root must have evolved under the constant threat of spiralizing animals, it is perfect at frustrating spiralization: extremely brittle, and having large cavities that would interrupt any spiral.
Apart from that: anything that simply does not come in a size that fits a spiralizer well (green beans, thin asparagus) or without a lot of prep (hokkaido pumpkin, winter melon). Or anything that is too soft and tough to cleanly be cut with an unsharpenable blade like found in a spiralizer, eg mushrooms, tomatoes, citrus fruit or eggplants.
