ABSTRACT:
A food treatment system having a frame, a receptacle having a peripheral wall defining a space for storage of a food item and an opening through which a food item can be introduced to the storage space, and a conditioning source for changing the state of fluid in the food treatment space defined by the frame. The frame has a first wall against which the receptacle bears with the receptacle in an operative position with respect to the frame. The frame has a second wall which is spaced from the first wall so that the first and second walls cooperatively define the food treatment space. The second wall at least partially blocks the receptacle opening with the receptacle in the operative position. At least one of the first and second walls is movable relative to the other of the first and second walls to vary the spacing between the first and second walls.
