I have never owned a food processor - I've managed with a blender and electric beaters without any problems, although sometimes the consistency is not as amazing as intended. And, as I am not a fan of cleaning the blender, often I just avoid using it and leave soups unblended. I know some readers are probably recoiling in horror at this point, so I'll move on.
One friend makes really yummy protein balls - all food processor. The night of Cluedo, Jeannie made raw brownies - also food processor. I have been wanting them ever since. So today (no gig!), I bought a food processor.
Shopping for a food processor has always been daunting. I knew you could buy super duper expensive ones that do everything except actually baking and serving. I'm not that rich. However, I wasn't keen on buying a cheap one that would break down in a matter of months. Today, I looked in Kmart at the super cheap $15 version - tempting as a starter, and to see if I would really use it much - and also the $39 option. I figured though that I would be racking up Myer One points at Myer, so I checked out their range. I dismissed everything with 3 figures in the price, and had a few options left. Still um-ing and ah-ing about what would be best, I then saw this (Breville) variety, and knew this was it.
