ABSTRACT:
A food slicing rack device includes a base with a top surface and two rows of spaced apart fingers defining knife guide slots extending from the base. A backstop is provided at one end of the device. The top surface of the device slopes downwardly in a direction from an open end of the device toward the backstop. Electric knife rivet recesses are provided for removing the knife after cutting. A snap arrangement is provided to snap the knife to the device for storage. The fingers are provided with alternating colors to facilitate alignment of the guide slots and uniform cutting. A hand slot in the backstop is provided for removing the sliced food item from the device. One construction provides for separate U-shaped members joined together to form the device. Methods of slicing food include tilting the food item toward a backstop and slicing each successive slice in a direction toward the backstop, withdrawing the knife through enlarged recesses provided in the cutting fingers, swiping the hand through a slot in the backstop to remove the sliced items, and attaching the knife to the rack device upon the completion of the cutting operation.
