A food processor is a kitchen appliance used to facilitate various repetitive tasks in the process of preparation of  food.Today, the term almost always refers to an electric-motor-driven appliance, although there are some manual devices also referred to as "food processors".

Food processors are similar to blenders in many ways. The primary difference is that food processors use swappable blades and disks (attachments) instead of a fixed blade. Also, their bowls are wider and shorter, a more appropriate shape for the solid or semi-solid foods usually worked in a food processor.

Its functions normally consist of:

• slicing/chopping vegetables
• Grinding items such as nuts, meat, or dried fruits 
• Shredding or Grating cheese or vegetables
• Pureeing foods
• Mixing and kneading doughs
