Blender

[Guest guest]

I thought that with braces and jaw surgery in my future that I better

purchase a blender and I thought that you guys may be able to advise

me on what to look for when I purchase one. Any features and anything

that you would recommend?

Thanks!!

I bought a Cuisinart with an interchangeble blender and food

processor. It cost about $80.00 but was really worth it.

I bleneded things really well the first few days and now I can use

the food processor to make things a little thicker. It works out

nice.

Lots of them out there. If you are into smoothies, you may want to get one that

has a special ice blade. If you want to just blend, some people opt for a hand

blender, it's quick and easy. If you aren't going to be wired, I found a food

processor worked great for not liquifying my food, but sort of pre-chewing it

for me.

My husband bought a Kitchenaid blender (he's the cook in our house).

We already have a food processor, so he didn't need it to have any

extra functions in that respect. I'd read here that it would be good

to chose one that's capable of doing ice (that for the adult mixed

drinks post-op when you're not on meds), so you might want to spring

for a heavy duty one. Think longer-term use.
