A couple of months ago Jamie and I went to a Pampered Chef party. They had this chopper thing that the lady had me try out. At First I thought it was pretty stupid....something I could easily do with a sharp knife. Then the lady hooked me, as I was chopping she started talking about all the things you can chop. Again, I'm thinking about my knife....then she started on about soups. That caught my ear, my knife can't chop that fine. The only thing was the price. So I went hutning for a cheaper alternative, turns out most kitchen stores carry it for around $20-$25, and Wal-Mart and Canadian Tire have one as well. So, if your stumped I would love the stainless steel one. ;) Please.
