I think it was either from Procook or John Lewis. It was many years ago so details are a little vague now.

Hi Shermie, I see from your signature you have the same liking for kitchen toys as I do.

Hi!
Yeah, most of the stuff that was in storage, I had to let go of. Couldn't afford to pay the ridiculous prices that they were asking, so I just started all over, but this time, it's not a hoard of stuff like before. But I'll ALWAYS love kitchen toys!!

Looks like you have a vintage food processor just in the upper right-hand corner of the pic.

Well spotted, it's a 1980 Moulinex Master Chef, as good today as the day it was bought, and used at least once a week.

Thanks! Can I see a whole pic of it, please?

Just realised, I've been calling it a Masterchef, but it's a Multichef.
There is an assortment of grating, slicing and mixing tools that came with it. The two blade rotor chop as in the picture is the one I use the most.

Nice!!
You must've had it for a while. I think I remember it coming out around the time that the food processor was the very latest thing on the store shelves!
Food processors were practically flying off the store shelves back then. Everybody wanted one! It took off to new heights in the kitchen!! Over the years, the food processor has been given some of the latest improvements, such as dicing disks and other things. I was going to get one, but I was thinking that's more to clean, so I got the plain ole simple Cuisinart (below).

I don't see that many on the store shelves these days, but as with all things they will make a comeback complete with microchip intelligence some day.

I could never afford one of those, so I got a Moulinex Jeannette shortly after I moved into my own flat in January 1972. I still have it, and it still gets used occasionally because it does some things much more efficiently than my new Kenwood food processor.
...this gives me an idea for a new thread.

What would you call it?
In the very early '80s, I bought a Waring food processor. After about 2 years, it started to go. Bought my first Cuisinart. It lasted for about 25 years!! Bought a KA machine. It got stolen during moving from the old apartment. Now, back to a Cuisinart, which I've had no problems with so far!!

Mocajete is what this is called ... from my research I just did to figure out what I might buy for myself.
