ABSTRACT:
A combination slicing and storing device for food products in block form wherein the food product is caused to descend by gravity within a tubular member mounted on a base such that a portion of the food product projects through an opening in the base and is supported on a recessed food support provided on a slice holder plate. The slice holder plate is operatively associated with a trigger member mounted on the base, being adapted for sliding movement with respect to the base upon manual actuation of the trigger member by a user of the device. Actuation of the trigger member causes a cutting member on the slice holder plate to be drawn through the projecting portion of food so as to create a slice of food product of uniform thickness. The slice is allowed to fall away from the device and onto a serving dish or plate by virtue of the fact that the food support has moved out of position beneath the food product. Spring means is provided for automatically returning the trigger and the slice holder plate to their normal position when the trigger member is released by the user.
