Abstract
A grating disc () arranged to be mounted within a food processor () and to be rotated in a direction of rotation (). The grating disc () comprising at least one grating tooth () for grating food to be processed which tooth protrudes from a surface of the grating disc. The tooth () has an uninterrupted, continuous envelope surface () forming an outer contour of said tooth () which surface has gradient which spatial derivative does not change sign. The envelope surface comprises a front surface () which is, during use, the leading surface of the grating tooth (). The front surface () extends from the grating said disc surface () to a distal end of the grating tooth, and is adapted to be brought into contact with said food during use of said food processor (). The front surface () is delimited in one direction by the grating disc surface, and in at least one other direction by at least one grating edge (). Due to this improved grating disc less food particles remaining on the grating disc—i.e. less processed food being caught by the grating tooth—implying improved cleanability of the grating disc after use.
