For example, on special occasions i make cheesecake, and i take it very seriously. The best recipe i've found uses half cottage cheese and half cream cheese. To get the perfect consistency, i puree the cottage cheese in a food processor for about five minutes. One could use a blender for this task, but blenders tend to yield a less even mixture, and when processing something thick like cheese it's sometimes hard to get everything out of a blender. For vegetable chopping and cheese grating, i can usually perform the task with a knife or hand grater in less time than it takes to get the processor out and locate the right blade. And cleaning out the fp is a tedious job. In other words, i use the thing but only rarely. Ben Leimkuhler
