  • Cracker crumbler
    Patent number: 7891591
    Abstract: An apparatus that crushes and crumbles crackers or similar foodstuffs in preparation for use with various food recipes, is herein disclosed. The apparatus is comprised of a plastic tower approximately two and one-half (2½) inches on a side by eight (8) inches in height. A top cover is removable to load whole crackers thereinto. When the cover is replaced, a switch is activated that energizes a variable speed motor that rotates a plurality of crumbling blades. The blades have serrated or straight edges which crush the crackers. As the crackers are crumbled, the pieces fall into a drawer-like lower compartment. Once the motor is turned off, the base compartment is slid out manually and the cracker pieces are then dispensed into the food dish. Crumbling crackers with such a method allows for cracker crumb consistency for recipes and reduced mess.
