Abstract
A food comminuting device comprises a bowl type receptacle in combination with a comminuting appliance designed to engage and fit over the open mouth of the bowl. The comminuting appliance has a frame which carries a plurality of comminuting units having different comminuting characteristics which can selectively be moved and brought into use in a predetermined operative working position such that the fragments of comminuted food fall freely into the bowl. The frame also provides a protective guard shielding at least the comminuting unit or units not in use thereby reducing risk of accidental contact of the latter with the user of the device, and guide means for guiding food bodies manually reciprocated in engagement with a selected comminuting unit in the operative working position.
