I want my food done in just a matter of minutes, with no hassles and just plain simple. One of the kitchen appliances that I frequently use is the food processor. The founder of the tiny invention was Pierre Verdon back in 1971. Later in 1973, it was developed further by Carl Sontheimer and changed the way how meals were prepared, for that I am mostly thankful. It has saved many hours, scraped knuckles and fingers. Remember those old hand graters? Have you ever tried one? For sure you’ll regret buying it – it’s messy, it takes too long to finish and it can cut you. I used one for many years grating cheese, cabbage, shredding vegetables, chocolate, coconut – you name it. After the launching of the first food processor, my biggest wish was to have my own for Christmas! I have had one ever since. I placed it on top of the kitchen counter, for anytime I have to prepare a meal for my family, it’s all geared up. Cheers to Mr. Verdon and Mr. Sontheimer, you’ve made it easy for me!
