Yes, I think it is called the Big Mouth. Would you happen to have the
toll free number for Hamilton Beach? They have a blade for French fries
and I would like to call and order it.

Sounds like the Hamilton Beach, and it's called either a "wide mouth" or
"big mouth" food processor. It has a 14 cup capacity. I have one, and
it's very fast, and great. I haven't used it very often, but it makes
kitchen work not take anywhere near as long as doing stuff by hand, and
it does it better.

I was given a nice big food processor by my husband for Christmas of 2010
but did not open it until this month because we have had so much illness
this past year. It is wonderful and I can slice perfect tomatoes,
onions, cucumbers and green peppers. Whey you put cabbage through the
slicing blade it comes out shredded and when you put it through the
grating blade you get the fine stuff like the coleslaw at KFC or what we
used to get at fish and chips places when I was growing up.
All the food falls down into the big bowl and so no cleaning up all over
the kitchen.
It has a wider opening so you can put a tomato or an onion in there. It
is wide enough for two of those pushers on a normal food processor. You
just have to pulse the motor to slice the onion or tomato it is that
quick.
I think the unit was 90 or 100 dollars, and it is made by Hamilton
Beach. They say they have a blade for French fries and I want to get it.
It comes with the chopping blade, a very sharp one shaped like those
little chopping jars you get but larger and sharper, and then the flat
round blade that has a slicing blade on one side and a grating blade on
the other.
I like it because the bowl holds a lot and you can make your whole salad
right in the bowl and scoop it into your eating bowl.
I am hoping this is the last piece of equipment like that I will ever
need. My small procesor was so frustrating because I had to keep
stopping to load it again and again just to make a casserole of
scalloped potatoes with onions.

Hello All,
Regarding our discussion about knife skills, I do a little cheating.
Whenever anything calls for shredded cabbage, e.g. Anna's vegetarian
soup, I purchase a bag of cole slaw. I have tried shredding a cabbage
with a knife, as I don't have a food processor, and Oh Boy! I can spend
months cleaning up the kitchen afterwards.
So time is money too, and why not cheat when you can?
Sheila,
Vancouver, Canada.
