For the catering job I had on Thursday, I made these savory cheese squares and needed shredded Swiss and Monterery Jack. Couldn't find the shredded, but thought...no problem, my lovely new food processor will zap 3 lbs of cheese in a heartbeat.

Went to make them....the last thing I had to do....and the little piece that sits on the center spindle to hold the shredder in place is missing.  :thatsright:  ( I now know what that black piece of plastic was for that was laying on the counter after Christmas, that I didn't know what it went to, and I don't know what I did with it. :censored: ) I had to use the grater....which I hate. Only one small part of a thumb knuckle went into the cheese.

Well...crap....I bet I could have used my new mandolin.  :thatsright:

Note to self....when staying up all night cooking....mind does not fully engage in the details.  :banghead:

Are you sure it's the "all night cooking" that's to blame??  :bolt:

Yes....I started cooking about 10pm, and delivered the stuff at 9am....

I was doing the cheese squares about 7, thinking I had plenty of time.

I just can't remember what I did with the black plastic piece...I have a really bad feeling I threw it out.  :censored: One of the main reasons I wanted this particular food processor was for quantity shredding/grating/slicing because it has an oversize feed tube. Without that piece...I can't use the slice/shred plate at all.   :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I'm going to see if I can. It's a GE.

I couldn't figure out why I couldn't get it to work, dug out the manual, and looked at the drawing of the pieces and that's when I saw I was missing a piece. I said several combinations of 4-letter words.  :bawl:

We've got shredded sharp here.  Local stuff.  Say what you want about Vermont, but those libtards do know how to make a pretty good cheese.

Vermont cheese is good stuff, in fact just about any type of chesse I like a few bites of.

I had a neighbor (RIP Ed) that loved that stuff from Wal Mart, he told everyone about it.

Now he's eating cheese with Jesus.
