Abstract

A food cutting device can include a food drawer, a base, and a force application mechanism. The food drawer can have an upper plate and a lower plate that are hinged clamshell-style. The food drawer can be slid relative to the base to open and close the food drawer. The base can be adapted to mount under an existing kitchen component such that the food cutting device does not take additional counter space. The base can include a force application mechanism such as a roller mechanism disposed thereon and configured to compress the upper plate of the food drawer onto the lower plate as the drawer is closed. A cutting mechanism such as a cutting blade can be positioned on one of the plates of the food drawer such that when the food drawer is closed, the plates are compressed and the cutting mechanism is advanced into a food item in the drawer.
