The Dixie Chopper silver eagle Looks like a fantastic lawn mower Here is a link that might be useful: Starting home business

I use a vidalia onion chopper (As Seen on TV) https://www.chopwizard.com/?s_kwcid=vidalia%20onion%20chopper:2130968899&gclid=CLH98sqepaMCFQ9jswod6F6U4A I got it for $20 at Bed Bath and Beyond. Plus I used a $5 off coupon so it ended up costing me $15. I like that I have 2 different chop sizes, everything comes out uniformly chopped, it has a measuring cup on the catch basin, plus it is safe for my 5 year old daughter to operate. Plus it is dishwasher safe. Downside is that I do have to slice things up first to a size that will fit in the chopper. And it does have to be emptied often. But seriously, I can chop up 8-10 cups of zucchini for a relish in 5 minutes or less.

The one in the picture that I have and find it versatile. It consists of one motor/driver and two different blender/ grinders attachments. Blender looks just like a blender and the grinder is just like conventional coffee mill/grinder. They thread onto the containers and then dropped into the driver. So if I want to just make flakes (not fine powder) use the grinder. But if I wish to make fine powder, use the grinder. Since the units are detached/separate from the motor, you can wash them, manually or in dish washer. You can also temporarily store things in the container that you just blended. The unit comes with a few screw on lids for the containers. I have had this unit for maybe 10 years. I throw away my bulky blender with zillion buttons ( Oyster ?) . This unit together with the stick blender ( 25 yrs old Braun) do every blending and grinding needs. I find them the best inventions since the ball point pen. :-)

I have an old Hamilton Beach, and I like it because it has slow speeds and will make pickle relish without making pickle puree. I also use it for making deviled ham/turkey, and it will chop everything just the way I like it, but I have to add the ingredients in a certain order or else take them out to put something else in. It's good for making pesto, which I like to have chunky instead of pureed. I puree most of it but put the pine nuts in last and then pulse it to get a coarse chop. A friend of mine had a Cuisinart, and it would puree everything in seconds and therefore was difficult to control. Make sure you get one with a pulse option and multiple speeds. I also have a Kitchenaid hand blender with a chopper attachment, but I don't use it because it is really too small to be of much use. I tend to use my mini food processor more than the large one because it is easier to clean. Lars
