Abstract: An electric food cutting machine which includes a main body, an electric motor and a container mounted on the main body, a disc-shaped cutter in the container rotatively driven by the motor for cutting cut pieces from a food object to be cut, and a disc member positioned in the container below the cutter for rotation by the motor in the same rotational direction as the cutter. The cut pieces are directed to the disc member for being discharged from the container. A passage is defined in the machine for directing the uncut portion of the food object from the cutter so as to separate the cut pieces from the uncut portion.
